SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) -Washington State is struggling to show improvement under third-year coach Paul Wulff, and the battle gets tougher this Saturday against No. 20 Southern Cal.
No Pac-10 team has a better record against WSU than the Trojans (3-0), who have won 85 percent of the games since the first in 1921, including the past seven in a row. But these Trojans, banned from postseason play for NCAA violations, are not the USC of old. They’ve struggled to beat Hawaii, Virginia and Minnesota.
Wulff said the Cougars (1-2) are feeling good about the game, which is the Pac-10 opener for both teams.
Last year, the Cougars lost 27-6 in Los Angeles, but gave up just one touchdown over the final three quarters. That game was the debut for freshman quarterback Jeff Tuel, now the WSU starter.
