The CFP bracket has:
-4 power conference champs (guaranteed spots)
-The top G5 team (guaranteed)
-4 teams that were in their power conference title games
-The only 3 remaining teams that went 11-1/10-2 in the Big 10/SEC.
Of all the scenarios, this was the least controversial.

Happy Snow Bowl anniversary to all who celebrate!
32 years ago today, Bledose-to-Bobo (in the snow snow) became one of the most iconic plays in WSU history. Fans have seen it on the video board almost every home game for decades. #GoCougs

Ok Coug fans, I’ve been enjoying some “On this date in Coug football history” lately, and I’m coming with a 4-parter today.
Did you know WSU has won the last four November 19th Apple Cups? (Why would you know that?)
Let’s a take a trip down memory lane…

I always like the “kickers are like milk” analogy. The expiration date isn’t as precise as the smell test. You might get a couple more drinks out of it, but its quality won’t improve.
Justin Tucker has missed five field goals in 10+ games this year.
His career high for misses in a season is seven, set in 2015.

Going to need a win from the Seahawks today to cure the pains from the WSU loss.
Bad news is that they’re playing the 49ers, to whom they’ve lost 6 straight by an average of 15 points.

There they are - Cougs at No. 18 in the CFP Rankings, up 3 spots from a week ago. Going to get tighter up top, but a good can from the first to the second ranking. #GoCougs
