The Washington State Cougars football team suffered their first loss of the season in a close game against the Oregon Ducks. The Cougars had a strong start to the season, winning their first three games, but the Ducks proved to be too much for them in the end. Despite the loss, the Cougars are still in a good position to make a run at the Pac-12 title.
The Cougars had a tough time getting anything going on offense against the Ducks. Quarterback Anthony Gordon threw for just over 200 yards and two touchdowns, but he was also intercepted twice. The Cougars were unable to establish a consistent ground game, as they rushed for just over 100 yards. The defense was able to keep the Ducks in check for most of the game, but they were unable to stop them late in the fourth quarter when Oregon scored the go-ahead touchdown.
The Cougars will now look to rebound from their loss as they face off against the Arizona Wildcats. The Wildcats are coming off of a big win against UCLA and are looking to continue their winning streak. The Cougars will need to find a way to get their offense going if they want to have any chance of beating Arizona. If they can do that, then they will be in a good position to make a run at the Pac-12 title.
The Cougars have been one of the most consistent teams in the Pac-12 this season and they will need to continue that trend if they want to have any chance of success against Arizona. It won’t be an easy task, but if the Cougars can find a way to get their offense going then they should be able to come away with a win. It will be an interesting game and one that could have major implications for the Pac-12 title race.
