WSU Weekly Update: At least beat the Huskies

It's going to be a tough task for the Washington State Cougars to salvage this season, currently sitting in seventh place of the Pac-10 (13-12 overall, 5-8 conference). It's probably is going to require a championship run in the conference tournament and I'm not sure that's happening.

However, mark your calendar. March 7. That's probably going to be the most meaningful game for the Cougs the rest of the season, regardless of if they make the NIT (Not-invited tournament).

That the regular season finale in Seattle, against the loathsome Washington Huskies who currently lead the conference. Sure they lost to the Purple and Gold by 20 points at home earlier in the season, but wouldn't that be something to give Cougar fan hope? They've had a pretty tough year so far.

Yes, we're grasping at straws here. But looking at the brutal stretch of the Cougars remaining schedule that's all you can really do. Kind of makes you wish they played in the WCC eh?

Who's ready for rowing season?
