Cameron Ward throws 4 TDs in first half, No. 23 Wazzu handles Northern Colorado 64-21

PULLMAN, Wash. (AP) Cameron Ward passed for 327 yards and accounted for five first-half touchdowns, and No. 23 Washington State breezed to a 64-21 victory over FCS member Northern Colorado on Saturday.

The Cougars (3-0) were locked in after their emotional win over Wisconsin last week and showed no signs of looking ahead to next week’s Pac-12 Conference opener against No. 16 Oregon State at home.

Ward and the Washington State offense were crisp from the outset.

The junior quarterback completed his first 12 passes - including a 37-yard touchdown strike to Kyle Williams and a 28-yard TD pass to Lincoln Victor - to give Wazzu a 22-0 lead in the first quarter.
