  • A bunch of video for your viewing pleasure
    September 5, 2011 10:55 am

    There’s no better way to spend your Labor Day than soaking up Saturday’s Cougar win by watching a bunch of video. Actually, I believe that’s what the creators of this day actually intended when proposing this holiday. First up is a long highlight video…it has to be long because there were A LOT of highlights: […]

  • Cougs win big, lose big
    September 4, 2011 9:23 am

    Jeff Tuel didn’t start today’s shellacking of Idaho State due to an illness. Marshall Lobbestael stepped in and looked great, hitting on 7 straight passes and marching the Cougs out to an early 14-0 lead. Then, for some reason, Jeff Tuel entered the game. Five plays later, he exited the game with a broken collarbone. […]

  • Game #1 – Idaho State…and some “predictions”
    September 2, 2011 11:43 am

    It feels good coming in to a game where you really really really think that the Cougs will win, huh? Even the most jaded of Cougar fans (I know you’re out there and I feel your pain) are going in to this one with a bit of confidence. Idaho State, with their new coach – […]

  • Pre-season position primer – The defense
    September 1, 2011 4:49 pm

    Don’t look now, but we’re a mere three days from the 2011 season. Summer slipped away pretty quickly, and for those of us on the westside, it never really happened. Because of this, I’m condensing my position break-downs and just putting all of the defense in one, complete, awesome, enthralling post (I really am my […]

  • Preseason position primer — The Receivers
    August 29, 2011 11:11 pm

    Talent, speed, experience and depth. That’s this year’s group of wideouts in Pullman. There’s been a bit of hype about these guys in the offseason and it’s not inappropriate – these kids are good. Really good. Dangerously good. “Able-to-keep-you-in-tough-games-despite-the-defense”-good. Marquess Wilson, a Freshman All-American last season, returns and does so with some added muscle, experience […]

  • Preseason position primer – The O-line
    August 28, 2011 8:24 am

    I don’t want to spend a lot of time beating up on the offensive lines of the past few years (the opposing teams did plenty of that), but things haven’t been so hot in the trenches for quite some time. In ’08, they had the 107th-ranked rushing offense. In ’09 and ’10, it was at […]

  • Final Scrimmage of Fall Camp
    August 25, 2011 10:11 pm

    The Cougs held their final scrimmage of fall camp today – here’s the report: PULLMAN, Wash. — Washington State University held its final scrimmage of fall camp under the lights in Martin Stadium Wednesday night. A Jeff Tuel touchdown pass to Isiah Barton highlighted the night as the Cougars went “live” for 54 plays and […]

  • Pre-season position primer – The Quarterbacks
    August 19, 2011 2:42 pm

    For the first season really since the Brink-era (and even then it was never really set in stone), the first string quarterback position is locked down by a single player before the season starts. Jeff Tuel, from his debut against USC two seasons ago as a true freshman, seemed destined for this position and rightly […]

  • First scrimmage of fall camp
    August 18, 2011 7:44 am

    The Cougs scrimmaged for the first time on Wednesday and although the coaching staff gave most of the snaps to the 2nd and 3rd -stringers, the #1’s looked impressive on both sides on the ball in limited action. Here’s the release from the school: PULLMAN, Wash. – Washington State University held its first live scrimmage […]

  • Pre-season position primer – The Running Backs
    August 16, 2011 9:15 am

    Paul Wulff and his Cougs are hard at work over in the blistering Pullman sun (what’s that like?) and I think it’s high time to take a look at the positions, group by group. Of course, the depth charts are not released at this point as the guys are doing their best to fight for […]
