WSU established offensive balance, throwing it 43 times and running it 35 more. On a night when it was all the Buffaloes could do to reel in a pass, the Cougars outgained their opponent 406-174.
PULLMAN — The swirling rainstorm that arrived at Martin Stadium hours before the Homecoming crowd did Saturday night could’ve made it another catastrophic week for Luke Falk and the Washington State Air Raid.
Instead, the 15th-ranked Cougars recouped on offense, rediscovered their form on defense and drowned the visiting Colorado Buffaloes 28-0 on a swampy night on the Palouse.
Swampy didn’t necessarily mean sloppy for the Cougars (7-1, 4-1 Pac-12).
