RECAP: WSU will always remember the Alamo, defeats ISU 28-26.

An incredibly fun first half gave way to a multitude of nervous moments in the second half, but the Washington State Cougars held on to defeat the Iowa State Cyclones in the 2018 edition of the Valero Alamo Bowl. As he has done all season, Gardner Minshew paced the Cougar offense, throwing for 299 yards and two touchdowns and adding another via his feet. He even finished the game as the leading rusher for the Cougs. True to the Air Raid, nine different receivers caught passes, with Dezmon Patmon leading the charge at 73 yards receiving, including a touchdown and the game-clinching catch in the fourth quarter.
