Returning home after the final bye week of the season, Jimmy Rodgers and company look to pick up the pieces from what was once a team on the rise that hit a major speed bump in Corvallis two weeks ago. Maybe we just play awful in Corvallis now? Having been in the house to watch us lose the last three meetings there — all games we were favored in — with consistently poor performances, I’m starting to think the chainsaw sound effect on every third down (and the rain) might actually cause problems for the Cougs. Who knows.
Moving on from that, the Cougs will look to regroup in Martin Stadium this weekend against a feisty Louisiana Tech squad.
