Cougars Are Locked In at #19

The Washington State Cougars find themselves in the cat-bird seat heading into their Pac-12 opener vs 0-3 unranked UCLA.

Ranked #19 in both the AP Top 25 and the Coaches Poll while hosting the Bruins for a 7:30pm Sold-Out home opener should be cause for joy on the Palouse, and it will be.

The Cougs come into the game riding high after a 31-24 road win against the Houston Cougars last Friday night.  The electric home crowd and nighttime buzz (pun intended) should serve the Cougs well as they look to start hot, and stay hot on their way to a potential 4-0 start and #10 Utah on the horizon.

For the Bruins to get back on track, they will have to muster more than their 14 PPG average.

Look for the Cougars to continue to roll behind Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Week  Anthony Gordon.  Gordon also leads the nation in Passing Yards, TDs, and Total Offense, not bad…
