Oregon State released its depth chart Monday, three days ahead of its season opener at Minnesota.

At this point a year ago, the primary question surrounding the team involved whether Seth Collins or Marcus McMaryion would start against Weber State and which player would take the field second. There was far less drama heading into this season since Darell Garretson wrapped up the starting job by the end of spring practice.

The changes from the start of fall camp have been minimal, aside from the few position changes or departures from the team due to transfer or medical retirement.

Of note is the absence of left tackle Sean Harlow, who suffered a season-ending broken leg in 2015. While coaches had not yet ruled Harlow out for the year, the senior said Monday it was "pretty official" that he would redshirt the coming season, short of a series of injuries to the line. Harlow has been with the team throughout fall camp and took reps with the scout team last week. Redshirt freshman Blake Brandel has taken first team snaps all camp and is slated to make his first career start Thursday.

On the other side of the ball, the defensive line has been marked a series of alternate starters, labeled as "OR" on the depth chart. Head coach Gary Andersen said Monday at his weekly press conference that Elu Aydon, Sumner Houston, Kalani Vakameilalo and Baker Pritchard would likely play the most in the coming week, with Noke Tago and junior college transfers Phillip Napoleon and Paisa Savea also rotating in.

Seven true freshmen have cracked the initial depth chart: quarterback Mason Moran, running back Artavis Pierce, wide receiver Trevon Bradford, offensive lineman Gus Lavaka and outside linebackers Shemar Smith, Hamilcar Rashed Jr. and Joah Robinett. Bradford is the lone member of that group listed in a staring role, while Pierce, Smith, Rashed and Robinett could all see action.
