PULLMAN – It’s naïve to think they can make the game look this easy all the time, so the Washington State Cougars made sure to revel in the best moments of their 83-62 nonleague thumping of Idaho State Saturday afternoon at Beasley Coliseum.
In the second half, when the Cougars were really chugging, guard Milan Acquaah picked the ball from Idaho State’s Sam Dowd near halfcourt, then powered home a slam dunk on the other end. Acquaah landed, then pumped his fist against his chest before returning to the other end of the floor.
Later in the period, Acquaah swiped a defensive rebound, pushed the ball down court then whipped a behind-the-back pass to Robert Franks, who collected and rose up to knock down a transition 3.
