Craig Novitsky is expected to start his 38th consecutive game, this time at left tackle, replacing Jonathan Ogden (knee). Normally a left guard, Novitsky started at center at Stanford, replacing James Christensen, who also has a knee injury. Novitsky might become the first Bruin to start every game in a four-year career. . . . Brian Allen is scheduled to start at tight end.
