EUGENE \u2014 Whether Oregon\u2019s starting running back will be available against Oregon State is \u201cto be determined.\u201d<\/p>\n
Oregon coach Dan Lanning said whether Noah Whittington<\/a>, who was listed as questionable and did not play in last week\u2019s game at Northwestern, will play or not against the Beavers is not decided as of Monday night.<\/p>\n \u201cIf he\u2019s ready, we\u2019ll have him out there,\u201d Lanning said.<\/p>\n Whittington traveled to Evanston and was in full uniform during the 34-14 win, but did not take any reps during pregame drills and did not play.<\/p>\n The sixth-year senior has 14 carries for 159 yards and two touchdowns and two kickoff returns for 41 yards this season.<\/p>\n The No. 6 Ducks (3-0) have seven scholarship running backs and they all had carries during the first two games and the six others did again last week, with Dierre Hill Jr.<\/a> surpassing Whittington for the team lead in rushing (161 yards) and Jayden Limar<\/a> starting in his place.<\/p>\n \u201cI think we have a good back unit,\u201d Lanning said. \u201cThat\u2019s something that we\u2019ve said is a strength and we said that this is why we prepare the way we prepare, because there\u2019s going to be a lot of guys that could be used. We\u2019ve got a lot of guys that can play winning football and that\u2019s certainly a position that\u2019s shown up.\u201d<\/p>\n No. 6 Oregon (3-0) vs Oregon State (0-3)<\/p>\n When:\u00a0Saturday, Sept. 20Time:\u00a012 p.m. PTWhere:\u00a0Autzen Stadium, EugeneTV channel:\u00a0Big Ten NetworkWatch: You can watch this game live for free with Fubo<\/a> (free trial), or with DirecTV<\/a> (free trial).Stream: DirecTV<\/a> (free trial) or Fubo<\/a> (promotional offers) or Sling<\/a> (college football season pass is just $199).
