The Washington State Cougars escaped the Stanford Cardinal at the buzzer for their third straight victory, 60-59.
Stanford (5-12, 0-7 in Pac-12) got the final possession of the game down by one with 3.4 seconds to go. Maxime Raynaud quickly fired off a three that hit the front of the rim and Brandon Angel’s put back failed as WSU (9-10, 4-4) narrowly survived to earn their fourth conference win in their last five games.
Despite Stanford’s winless start to Pac-12 play, the Cardinal have proven to be a tough out with narrow losses to Arizona State, Colorado and Utah.
