Good morning, and how ‘bout them Cougs??!! Kyle Smith and his Washington State Cougars collected what is easily the biggest win of his young tenure so far on Saturday, defeating the UCLA Bruins 79-71. Now I recognize that this isn’t the traditional UCLA vintage, but the Bruins did win beat the Washington Huskies on Thursday night and, as always, certainly brought the far more talented roster into the game.
It says a lot for Kyle Smith that he’s got this hastily assembled team playing at a higher level than they did at any point last season.
