Leach certainly isn’t taking Oregon State lightly, even with the Cougars favored by 15 points. “We’ve got to get better this week,” Leach said. “We got a long ways to go."
Washington State football coach Mike Leach can empathize with what Jonathan Smith is dealing with in his first season as coach at Oregon State, where he is in the start of a major rebuild.
Oregon State was 7-29 the past three seasons, and the Beavers are 1-4 this season with their only victory coming against Southern Utah.
The Cougars will try to keep the Beavers down when the teams play Saturday in Corvallis.
