Washington State coach Mike Leach, trying to lead his team to its first 4-0 start in 16 years, is looking mostly for consistency when the Cougars finish nonconference play Saturday.
No. 18 Washington State (3-0, 1-0 Pac-12) will play Nevada (0-3) at Martin Stadium in Pullman, Wash.
Washington State is a four-touchdown favorite against a team that has true freshman quarterback Kaymen Cureton starting his first road game.
"I think we've been pretty resilient, but we haven't been as consistent as I would have liked," Leach said. "We did some good things, but I think we're still battling consistency on every side of the ball.
