HOT COUGAR ACTION: Monday Morning Trivia

Lost in all of the talk of coaching hot seats, medical hardships, radio rants and who is or is not a 'nog, has been the fact WSU is averaging 33.3 PPG. I remember a time in the last two seasons where a friend and I celebrated the fact the team scored 20 points in a game. That got me to thinking, which leads to today's three part CCMMTQ.

Q: Since 1917, how many seasons has WSU averaged 30.0 or more points per game? Not including 2011.

Q: Since 1917, what is WSU's highest single season points per game average?

Q: Since 1917, what is WSU's lowest single season points per game average?

Each question will be worth 10 points. If there is no correct answer by 3 p.m, the closest guess will receive the points. If you get all three answers exactly correct you will receive eleventy billion negative points for being a cheater.

Washington State left to lament its mistakes | Two interceptions in the red zone and special teams blowups combine to cost the Cougars an upset shot
There’s something about the Oregon Ducks that brings out the fight in Washington State. For the second consecutive year the Cougars scrapped with a highly touted Oregon team and afterward talked about what could have been. WSU coach Paul Wulff, whose team fell to 3-5 overall and 1-4 in Pac-12 play, even brought up the "M" word after his team’s 43-28 loss Saturday. "Moral victories ... those things don’t matter to us anymore," he said. "We’re better than that. We want to win games."
