We would have finished 2nd in the Pac-12 this year

Does anyone think he gets purchased by Auburn, Missouri or some bigger school ? Heirs one of the best qbs I’ve seen all year. Tremendous athlete with great technique.

21 - 0 Boise St. 1st qtr.

Boise St just picked it again and is driving

Best rock band of all time. About as unappreciated as our Cougs. Pull up a few beers and listen to the greatest shit ever.

I understand not everyone is cool with NIL, but for those that are…. it’s clear people are coming for a handful of our players. Dickert and a few players tweeted out this campaign. The players who did tweet it were many of those I’d assume are the one going be getting offers. Mateer, Din Buh, Al-Uqdah, Stephen Hall etc. Hoping we can keep them, or at least some. Donate 5$ even if you can so we can make a run at having a team again next year. Even a moderate NIL deal will help keep prospects here over reestablishing in a new system.

Sharing a story about a great immigrant. Heart warming to see stories like this.

Washington State football coach Jake Dickert shared something he’s been thinking about with me this week.

“We need to go to a 28-team playoff,” Dickert told me. “The kids have proven they only want to play in the playoffs, so why not? Let’s give the people what they want. There are no conference champions. The conferences are so big. So let’s open it up and have a real playoff like Division II and Division III. They find a way to do 28 teams. That would create a lot of excitement.”

The Cougars are 7-1 with four games left on the schedule. The first College Football Playoff rankings will be released next Tuesday. WSU isn’t eligible for a conference championship berth this season. Dickert knows his team, even at 11-1, would need help to reach the 12-team playoff field with an at-large berth.

Scrub Conference Title Games?​

Dickert said he’d like to see college football move the start of the season to mid-August, do away with conference championship games, and start that 28-team playoff a week after the end of the season.

Would TV go for it?

The conference championship games are included as part of the media-rights package. The networks paid for them and won’t give them up. The current rights deals would need to sunset. That pushes this conversation out to at least 2028 or so. The CFP and ESPN also signed a six-year, $7.8 billion contract last spring. ESPN holds the rights to the event through the 2031-32 season.

Would the Big Ten and SEC be on board?

It’s like Gordon Gekko said: “Money never sleeps.” If there’s more revenue in it, they’d be all ears. But those conferences have their ideas about the future. There’s also the question of what would happen with bowl games.

“These kids want to play in meaningful games,” Dickert said. “The bowl system has had its turn. It’s time to evolve into a bigger playoff system. It took us so long to get a two-team playoff, then a four-team playoff, and now we’re at 12.

“It will get there.”

Sounds like a fine visit to the islands might be in store next year. Maui invitational

Multimedia for what?


Edit - And it replaces the current $5M a year deal. Again, for what? And what does WSU have similar to this?

5/22 in the 2-deep are seniors on offense with 4 starters.

6/22 2-deep are seniors on defense with 5 being starters.

According to ourlads.com

This seems young to me.

Just announced....7:30pm for 11/9, and another CW night game in Pullman.

Brutal on the time, if you're traveling as an over and back. Albuquerque is still TBD.

Portland State on Monday November 4th. Hope we have a better crowd than the 2,200 that showed up last year. Portland should be interesting with Shane Nowell out of Eastside Catholic/UA/UNLV showing up for his Senior year. A good test for Cedric. 5 Transfers for Portland State will make it a bit hard to see what style they want to play. They have some size.

Good news is that as they are in the Big Sky our staff is very familar with there staff.

He’s not gonna win or get an invite to NY barring a string of 400/200 6 TD performances down the stretch but still pretty cool he’s being talked about

Overcame ugly 3rd quarter to play a very good 4th quarter. A win on the road and now up to 22nd in both polls.

Stumbled upon this page at the CW website that has videos of all the PAC-12 games broadcast on the CW so far this season. Appears to be each game in their entirety. Check it out:

Here's the future football schedule for the PAC-12 conference, including game time and TV networks. Looks like WSU plays USU at 7:30pm on November 9th.

I absolutely love the CW. Hopefully the PAC-12's future media contract includes the CW.

I will be cheering for the Cougars every game except on November 23d (vs Oregon State).

I haven't seen you guys link this stuff, but the PAC-12 has been running some pretty cool weekly videos on Youtube, commentary about how this season is progressing. I've been watching these two shows weekly all season long.

Maybe, but hey I’ll take it. Beat Utah State!

Was last week a fluke or are we poised for a repeat performance?

I predict SDSU will prove pesky but in the end, it’s all Cougs.

WSU 39 SDSU 24

Oregon - F-them
uw - 3-way tie for 10th, 4-4
FUSC - 13th, 4-4
FUCLA - 4-way tie for 14th, 2-5
Colorado - tied for 3rd, 6-2 (F them too)
ASU - 9th, 5-2
AZ and Utah (haha!) - tied for 12th, 3-5 and 4-4
Stanford - 15th, 2-6
Cal - 17th (last), 4-4

F all of them.

Anyone else going?

He came out the series before the end of the first half and didnt play again.

Reports have the Cougs defeating Colorado State by 10. Many contributions.

just watch the great plays .....

Does Dickerts gambling and at times it feels frantic play calls effect this teams confidence.

Feels like we need to settle down and just play smart.

Fundamentals are way off and that’s on coaching

Indiana crowd shot was impressive. Indiana is fired up. Husky’s looking uninspired, early
