WSU plays an actual football game that counts this weekend and that means it is time for the return of the CougCenter Monday Morning Trivia Contest. If you are unaware, every Monday we post a few trivia questions and dish out some extremely valuable trivia points. At the end of the year we add it all up and name a winner, who gets add to the illustrious CougCenter Champions Wall of Fame.
Now, P.J. Kendall is building a bit of a dynasty as the three-time defending champion. He's going four a four-peat this year unless someone can knock him off. We are going to mix things up a bit this season with the standard questions, a couple different formats and bonus questions throughout the day in the comments.
A friendly reminder that we don't take this very seriously, but cheating at trivia is dumb and please don't do it. The rest of us will post angry GIFs at you if you do it.
With that said, welcome to the 2015 CCMMTC.

Q2: Who handled the kicking duties for WSU in the game from question No. 1?
Q3: WSU has played Portland State once, who coached the Vikings in that matchup?

Significant changes to either players or coaches often do little
