SALT LAKE CITY (AP) The Washington State Cougars are officially one victory away from being named Pac-12 North champions, and their College Football Playoff hopes remain alive.
Luke Falk threw for 311 yards and three touchdowns and No. 19 Washington State beat Utah 33-25 on Saturday.
The Cougars are now one win from winning the North and playing in the conference championship game for the first time since the league created divisions in 2011.
''For the last three years, we've been right on the cusp of the thing,'' Washington State coach Mike Leach said.
