Hot Cougar Action: Monday morning trivia

If you've been following Cougar football recently you know there is a rule in the NCAA rulebook which says anytime Cal plays WSU a Bear running back must run for at least 100 yards. WSU has played call every year since 2005 and in those seven games, Cal has produced eight 100-yard rushers.

While it's essentially inevitable another Cal running back will top the century mark this weekend, today's two trivia questions go beyond Cal.

Q1: Which player holds the all-time record for rushing yards in a single game against WSU?

Q2: Which player rushed for the most yards in a single game against WSU since 2001?

The answer to the two questions could be the same, or it could be different. That's for you to figure out.
