WSU started off the football season with a bang, smacking around Colorado State in Fort Collins in the return trip of a home and home series with the Rams. It sure looks like the Cougs are in about as good of a position as they can be heading into this weekend’s massive matchup with Wisconsin in Pullman. If the old adage — the biggest improvement happens between week 1 and 2 — holds true, this weekend could be very, very fun.
We also all know the situation. It’s been 25 years since a power conference team visited Pullman, and it will likely never happen again. How front of mind will that be as we commiserate pregame? How much will that dominate the conversation on the broadcast? Will it overshadow the actual game, as it did last Saturday when CBS Sports Network decided to talk about it, more or less nonstop?
Other topics of discussion:
* Beer. Jeff: Spruce Budd (Fort George). Craig: (Machine House and Lowercase collab).
* Soccer — now ranked 14th or 15, depending on which poll you like — continues to roll, beating San Diego State to remain perfect on the year at 5-0-0.
* Volleyball — now ranked 17th — is also home this weekend, hosting its own tournament that culminates with a huge matchup with top 10 BYU on Friday.
