Washington State-Portland State: The Air Raid is on
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsDescribing last season's Washington State football team is pretty easy. A great offense, bad everything else. Mike Leach took that to heart and hired Alex Grinch as new defensive coordinator and promoted Eric Mele to special teams coach. If those two can bring any life to their units, the 2015 Cougars just might be a good team.
The Cougars are going to have a good offense. Leach and his Air Raid system are always good. But as 2014 demonstrated, the offense can't do everything. Leach brought in the new coaches to address the problems from last season and on Saturday they will have the chance to show they are up to the challenge.
