Cougar Football fans walked away from Martin stadium in stunned silence after Washington State University (WSU) lost to Eastern Washington University (EWU) 45-42 in a game that most expected the Cougs to win. For a second year in a row, WSU Football lost to an FCS team much to the dismay of the fan base. While WSU’s offense put points on the board, it was the WSU defense that failed to stop EWU’s duo of Gage Gubrud (QB) and Cooper Krupp (WR) who hauled in 12 catches for 206 yards and 3 touchdowns. Cougs will regroup and focus on their next game with Portland State.
Game Notes: WSU’s Luke Falk (QB) completed 41 of 51 passes for 418 yards and four touchdowns with one interception. WSU’s Gabe Marks caught 10 passes for 108 yards and 2 touchdowns.
