Sadly, the Cougs just couldn’t quite make the full comeback last week against Cal - the only team left on their schedule where a loss could have been anticipated/ expected. The remainder of this season is going to be must-win games against beatable opponents. I.e., this is where Bill Doba keeps or loses […]

Well, we’re 2-2 and lost to two of the best 10 teams in the country; so I’m not exactly worried. I wasn’t all that enthused by the performance against USC, but it’s important to remember just how good this Trojan team is supposed to be and honestly they were just way too physically superior […]

So to recap the season - briefly - the Cougs went into Madison and lost to the #7 Badgers by 21 points (42-21), beat SDSU […]

Okay, so I’ll admit I did not really see WSU blowing SDSU out of the water like they did in Seattle last week. Our offense […]

Okay, week 2 and I was waaaay off on week 1. I said that WSU would lose a close one to Wisconsin: 27-30. Seems […]
