The Washington State Cougars pulled off a historic upset on Saturday night, defeating No. 19 Wisconsin in a thrilling game at Martin Stadium. It was a crucial moment for the program, as the Cougars had been struggling in recent years and needed a big win to get back on track.
The Cougars were led by quarterback Anthony Gordon, who threw for 293 yards and three touchdowns. He was supported by a strong running game, as the Cougars rushed for over 200 yards and two touchdowns. The defense also played well, holding the Badgers to just 13 points.
The win was a huge confidence boost for the Cougars, who had lost their last four games and were in danger of missing out on a bowl game. It was also a big moment for head coach Mike Leach, who has been trying to turn the program around since he arrived in 2012.
The Cougars now have a chance to make a bowl game, which would be a huge accomplishment for the program. It would also be a great way to end the season on a high note and give the team something to build on for next year.
The win over Wisconsin was an important one for the Cougars, and it could be the start of something special for the program. With a bowl game in sight and a talented roster, the Cougars could be poised to make some noise in the Pac-12 next season.
