WSU Cougars collect their first Pac-12 win of season by running over Colorado

PULLMAN – A date with the Colorado offense was the right antidote for the struggling Washington State defense.

The Cougars forced three turnovers and held the Buffaloes without a passing touchdown in a 41-10 home victory Saturday, their first of the Pac-12 Conference season and their third in as many seasons against Colorado.

Anthony Gordon boosted his season touchdown total to 29 with four more on a rainy evening at Martin Stadium. He threw for 369 yards, including 109 to senior Brandon Arconado, who returned after missing two games with a lower-body injury and scored his second touchdown of the season.
