The Good, Bad and Ugly of WSU’s win over Stanford

Good morning. Well that was pretty cathartic, yes? In a game that kind of resembled something we see in an NBA arena - Cougs score the game’s first 19 points, Stanford scores 22 of next 28 to make it close, Cougs end the game on a 24-0 run - we saw a Washington State Cougars team that we’ve seen all-to-rare glimpses of this season. That is to say a highly efficient and mostly effective offense paired with a defense that generates a couple takeaways to create just enough breathing space.

The odd part is that the more vitriol Mike Leach fires at his players, the better they seem to respond.
