Oddly, Luke Falk thrives on contact; also, Shalom Luani makes first public comments since the Domino's Pizza fight
PALO ALTO, Calif. – The sight was a familiar and jarring one to Washington State fans who’d followed the Cougars’ ups and downs last season. And everyone held their breath in the third quarter of WSU’s eventual 42-16 win over No. 15 Stanford as starting quarterback, Luke Falk, lay flat on his back on the turf at Stanford Stadium.
Stanford safety Justin Reid had hit Falk head-first as the quarterback was sliding on the end of a run, and the officials’ penalty flag flew almost immediately, flagging Reid for targeting.
