Rolovich makes home debut as Washington St hosts Oregon
Nick Rolovich will be making his home debut when Washington State hosts No. 11 Oregon on Saturday.
He's already gotten the Cougars off to a good start with a couple of other “firsts.”
Rolovich became the first Washington State head coach to win his debut on the road since Warren Powers in 1977 when the Cougars opened the conference-only season with a 38-28 win at Oregon State last weekend.
The Cougars (1-0) were led by quarterback Jayden de Laura, the first true freshman to start a season opener in program history. He threw for 227 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another.
