Officials: Referee: Bruce Bondi; Umpire: Vic Winnek; Linesman: Sean Burrow; Olsen passed for 384 yards on the game, but had three costly interceptions. Be- Line judge: Brian Davis; Back judge: Scott Zelmer; Field judge: Mike Bezner; sides Onwuasor, Xavier Coleman made two interceptions as the T-Birds were driving. Side judge: Richard Hanna; Portland State also had nine pass breakups in the game as Olsen completed 28-47.
