Alright WSU fan here

[Cougfan99]

Will you bring us some Cougar Gold cheese?

I had some last night on my burger

They are 10-2 and had obvious targeting call vs USC not called and it cost them a 1st and goal at the 8 then missed a FG and lost. Lost the apple cup in a blizzard by 12 points and were dumped 5 spots in the polls.

LSU, Kentucky and PSU being picked to NY6 over WSU is ridiculous.

 

[Cougfan99]

Yeah, that targeting nonsense was bull. Are you guys ready to march on PAC headquarters with pitchforks and torches to demand the ouster of Larry Scott?

Yep he got booed handing out the trophy Friday night

 

[WooBadger18]

I do find it funny that your fans are bitter to play us because we aren’t a cfb power but I still have the Paul Wulff years fresh in my memory when you guys couldn’t beat anyone.

I don't think that's fair to Washington State. It doesn't really seem like they're bitter to play us, it's that they'd rather be in a NY6 bowl and felt they had a chance to be there. And if their situation happened to us we'd be acting the exact same way.

Don’t worry it’s all a pissing show the troops will rally when the alcohol starts to flow

Getting screwed by a conference. Something we're plenty familiar with. We have this thing called an "Apology Wall"...

He should. That guy is terrible. I mean we had Dan Beebe, but at least we kicked him to the curb.

What you want to know?

But first:

Yes WSU fans are bitter, but expect that to last about 12 hours as this is our record 4th bowl in a row. WSU fans travel well, very well and will sell way more tickets then you think.

This is a good football team and they play very good defense. Should be a fun game.

Yah and thanks for Jim Walden, it was a great experience.

 

[KnappShack]

I'd have more respect if you went with Cougfan69 as your handle, but welcome aboard

Should be an entertaining game

(My profile pic is conflicted about this match up)

 

[Cougfan99]

I know nothing about WSU, other than Leach is the coach, so I expect a lot of control passing, which is something that ISU has defended pretty well for the most part this year. ISU is rather sporadic on offense this year, but has some outstanding skill players that can take over a game.

Our defense is ranked in the top 30ish and led the pac 12 in sacks. It’s all based on speed and they will tough indoors on turf

 

[Rods79]

Wanted West Virginia? I don’t wish those fans on anyone, you should be damn happy to have ISU as an opponent. Holgerson probably would have whined that the Minshew Moustache was unprofessional.

Wulff = CPR.
Doba = Chizik
CMC >>>> Leach but MUCH less colorful.

 

[DarkStar]

What's your opinion of Jim Walden?

WSU needs to be punished for sending him to ISU.

 

[Cougfan99]

Yah and thanks for Jim Walden, it was a great experience.

He is a treasure

Fair enough. I do enjoy watching WSU play.

Obvious calls "missed" against traditional powers and disrespect in the polls?
Our fanbases may be related.

We'll find ways to hate you by gametime, but this is good stuff.

He never should have left

Wait, the other stuff AND you hate your conference commish?
It's almost too good to be true now.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Quick rundown on us

Started 1-3 before putting in freshman Brock Purdy at QB (who picked us over Alabama and Texas A&M). He saved our season.

David Montgomery is our star running back. Power back that does not go down easy. Yards per carry wont blow you away, but a lot of that is due to him running behind an average offensive line.

Hakeem Butler is our star wide receiver. 6'6 225 lbs that has speed. Has some head scratching drops, but will also make plays like this


Defense was the best in the Big 12, but struggled later in the year as injuries piled up. As mentioned earlier, we run a 3-3-5 and it all starts with our nose guard Ray Lima who is 6-3 305 lbs.

 

[Cougfan99]

The town burned like 10

I am telling you the tailgate pre-funk for this could go down in history. Cougs love to drink we are good at it.
