For the second time in three weeks, Washington State suffered an ugly, mistake-filled road defeat. Here are three initial impressions from the Cougars’ 58-37 defeat to Arizona.
1 – This one was once again a team collapse
Go back to the first offensive drive of the second quarter, when WSU trailed Arizona 10-7. Cougars quarterback Luke Falk zipped a well-placed deep pass to Dezmon Patmon who had beaten his defender at about the 10-yard line.
The pass hit Patmon in the hands, but he dropped the ball. It should have been a touchdown that put WSU up 14-10.
