Pat McAfee, the former NFL punter and current ESPN analyst, recently made waves on College GameDay when he criticized Washington State for its lack of success in college football. During the show, McAfee said, “Washington State, I’m sick of you. You have been bad for a long time.”
McAfee’s comments were met with a mixed reaction from fans and analysts alike. Some felt that his comments were too harsh and that he was being too critical of the team. Others felt that he was simply being honest and that Washington State needed to hear it.
Regardless of how one feels about McAfee’s comments, it is undeniable that Washington State has not had much success in college football recently. The team has not won a conference title since 2002 and has not made a bowl game since 2015.
It is also worth noting that Washington State is not the only team in the Pac-12 that has had struggles in recent years. Oregon, UCLA, and Arizona have all had their share of struggles as well.
Ultimately, it is up to Washington State to turn things around and prove Pat McAfee wrong. The team has the talent to be successful and they will need to put in the work to make it happen. If they can do that, then they will be able to silence the critics and prove that Pat McAfee was wrong.
