Per Cougfan:
“We have two games ahead of us we're going to win. And I think we need to battle back and we'll be 2-2 in two weeks."
It's not an unrealistic expectation, with back-to-back games at Baylor and home against Portland State.
It's also nice to hear Rogers speak with some confidence after the Cougars' worst loss in history. But the passing game has been unacceptably horrible in the first two weeks. Rogers' numbers: 22/45, 160 yds, 1 TD and 3 INT. His longest pass of the year is 18 yards. Kevin Lopina may suddenly have an opportunity at taking his job.
If the Cougars are to salvage the 2008 season, it has to start with Rogers. In terms of WSU's bowl hopes, the Baylor game is a must win. We have to come out swinging.
Or, in Rogers' case, passing.
Another silver lining: Wulff's old team, Eastern Washington, got within 7 points of beating a good Colorado team yesterday.

Watch out for Portland State
They’re good enough that they could beat you if Washington State has an off day.

What, exactly, qualifies as an "off" day at this point?
I think you have to have an “on” day to know what an “off” day is. I’m scared that we haven’t really had an “off” day yet …

I know we’re all turning to self-depracation to avoid taking this loss as hard as we might otherwise, but you have to admit that pretty much everything that could have possibly gone wrong did. Being down two touchdowns in 90 seconds killed any positive momentum from the week of practice, and the young / inexperienced team went downhill from there. I think that qualifies as an “off” day.
But OMG SRSLY 2-2 is not likely. I don’t think we win at Baylor, so probably 1-3. Probably. Ugh.

If Saturday wasn't an off day
I don’t know what is.
(I hope I’m right about this)
