WSU run over by BYU, 21-19

The BYU Cougars ran for 238 yards as the Washington State Cougars capped a week of turmoil with a 21-19 loss in their penultimate home game at Gesa Field.

WSU drops to 4-4 on the season, while BYU improves to 6-2.

It was WSU’s first game without five fired coaches, including former head coach Nick Rolovich, who was relieved from his duties on Monday after failing to comply with the state’s Covid vaccination mandate. Acting head coach/defensive coordinator Jake Dickert took over the top spot, and there were no obvious ill effects from the change.
