This date in Cougar football history: Cougs down Ducks in 2OT thriller

Good morning Coug fans. Our Washington State Cougars started practice yesterday, which would normally be cause for great excitement. Don’t get me wrong—it still is exciting, and I can’t wait to watch Cougar football this fall. But....it’s just not the same.

So before getting to some words on the first practice of the season, I thought it’d be fun to look back on what happened five years ago today: a double overtime victory over the Oregon Ducks in Eugene.

The Lead Up

Washington State was 2-2 heading into this one, while Oregon was a disappointing 3-2.
