Corvallis, OR -- Oregon State football is set for its spring game on Saturday at Reser Stadium.

Head coach Jonathan Smith announced coaches will run a draft format to decide the personnel of each team.

Coaches will also be split among the two teams.

Last season the Beavers didn't have enough healthy players for a full spring game so they held an open practice instead.

"It feels good just having more guys, more guys that are healthy," Smith sad. "Again, we're going to be smart with some guys too if they're not completely healthy or limited amount. But we got enough guys to continue to practice. You know last year we held a couple guys out, we couldn't even practice, put 11 guys on the, so it feels better."

OSU's spring game is set to start at 11 a.m. on Saturday at Reser Stadium.
