PULLMAN – Typically in the past, when the Washington State Cougars have traveled to Spokane to play a team this stout on defense, the Gonzaga Bulldogs have been the ones sitting on the other bench.
Mark Few’s club will be nowhere in sight Wednesday at the Spokane Arena, but expect the Cougars to find it just as difficult – if not more so – to put the ball in the hoop when they tip off with Kansas State at 8 p.m. Wednesday’s game, which will be televised on ESPN2, is the second in as many years between the Cougars and Wildcats.
