CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) – When Washington State fell behind on Saturday, the Cougars’ offense responded, and that’s part of the team’s mindset, said quarterback Gardner Minshew II.
“Any time our backs are to the wall, we’re going to come out swinging,” Minshew added.
Minshew threw for 430 yards and five touchdowns as Washington State scored 28 straight second half points to beat Oregon State 56-37 on Saturday night.
Tay Martin had 119 yards receiving and two touchdowns and James Williams added 134 yards from scrimmage and a receiving touchdown for the Cougars (5-1, 2-1 Pac-12).
