Washington State football has played their share of non-conference games against major conference teams. Since 2010 alone, the Cougs have faced off with Wisconsin out of the Big Ten, Rutgers out of the Big Ten, Auburn out of the SEC and Oklahoma State out of the Big 12. All of those games, however, have one thing in common: None of them were played in Pullman.
Since their inception, Washington State has played plenty of these games on the road. Some of them were on neutral sites. WSU even got a couple of major teams to play “road” games in Seattle.
