The WSU Cougars blew a 10-point lead down the stretch but did enough in overtime to ride an uncharacteristically hot shooting performance to their third conference victory, a 91-89 win over Colorado in Pullman.
WSU improved to 10-9 and 3-4 in the Pac-12, while Colorado dropped to 10-10 and an almost-unbelievable 0-7 in conference play.
A Charles Callison midrange jumper gave WSU a 79-69 lead with 3:26 to go in regulation, and it appeared the Cougs had the game comfortably in hand thanks to an epically hot shooting night.
WSU entered the game as the worst 3-point shooting team in Pac-12 play, but today was an entirely different animal thanks to a couple of unlikely players: Callison and Viont’e Daniels, who combined to hit 10 of their 14 shots from beyond the arc.
