Greetings. Seems like just last week that we mentioned how, despite the fact that the Washington State Cougars basketball team was in the midst of a bad stretch, there were still signs for hope. There was also something about progress rarely going in a linear direction. Fast forward to Saturday evening, when WSU’s path toward a quality win and a measure of respectability took the shape of an A-frame house.
As Dan Patrick would say, the Cougs were en fuego to start the game, racing out to a 23-5 lead over the heavily-favored Colorado Buffaloes in just over eight minutes.
