COUGARS COMEBACK TO NOTCH WIN AT OREGON


WSU erased a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter at Oregon to send the game into overtime and
later come away with the 45-38 win in double overtime. The cougars notched their second comeback win of the season after driving 90 yards and scoring the go-ahead touchdown with 13 seconds
left in the win at Rutgers week two. It is the first time that WSU had two last-minute comebacks in
the same season since 1992. Washington State snapped an eight-game skid to Oregon, winning for
the first time since 2006 and claiming its first win in Eugene since 2003. The Cougars have won their
last two overtime games and four of their last five.
FALK OFF TO HOT START
Redshirt-sophomore Luke Falk is off to a solid start to the 2015 season, posting four 300-yard games
including a 478-yard effort in a road win over Rutgers and a 505-yard performance in the win at
Oregon. Through the first five games, Falk has tossed 15 touchdowns and two interceptions while
leading the Pac-12 in passing yards (392.8) and total ofFALKS 300-YARD GAMES

FALKS FOURTH QUARTER COMEBACKS
Luke Falk hasnt been a stranger to fourth-quarter comebacks. Falk has played in just 11 games and
made eight starts but already has led the Cougars to three fourth-quarter comebacks. Last season at
Oregon State, WSU trailed early in the fourth and Falk led a pair of scoring drives for a 39-32 victory.
Earlier this season, trailing by four with 1:31 remaining at Rutgers, Falk leading WSU on a 10-play, 90yard drive that was capped by an 8-yard touchdown pass to River Cracraft with 13 seconds remaining. In Saturdays win at Oregon, Falk led WSU on a pair of scoring drives late in the fourth quarter
that erased a 10-point deficit and sent the game into overtime after an eight-yard touchdown pass to
Dom Williams with one second remaining. In overtime, Falk rushed for a touchdown and then threw
for another before the Cougar defense picked off a pass in the second overtime to clinch the win.
FALK, BENDER BATTLED TO LEAD AIR RAID
Luke Falk and redshirt-freshman Peyton Bender battled for the starting quarterback job throughout
preseason camp before Falk eventually won the job. Falk gained valuable experience in 2014 after
being forced into action after graduate quarterback Connor Halliday suffered a season-ending broken ankle against USC. Falk threw for 346 passing yards and two touchdowns against the Trojans.
The following week, in his first career start at Oregon State, he threw for 471 yards and five touchdowns to earn his first win and Pac-12 Player of the Week honors. At No. 13 Arizona State, he threw
for 601 yards and three touchdowns, also rushing for one. He capped his season with 355 yards and
two touchdown passes in the Apple Cup. In just six games including three starts, Falk finished the
season with 1,889 passing yards (475.6 per game), more yards than 10 other FBS schools had for the
season, and 13 touchdowns, more than 18 other FBS schools had for the season. Bender redshirted
in 2014 and threw for 265 yards and two touchdowns in the 2015 Crimson & Gray Spring Game.

GET THE BALL BACK


First-year WSU defensive coordinator Alex Grinch has emphasized to the Cougar defense the need
to force turnovers and get the ball back to Air Raid offense. Washington State has forced nine
turnovers in the first five games of 2015, tied for sixth-most in the Pac-12 and already surpassed last
seasons total of eight. The Cougars have picked off four passes and tied for third in the Pac-12 with
five fumble recoveries. WSU has turned the nine turnovers into 20 points this season with Shalom
Luanis interception in double overtime sealing the win at Oregon last Saturday.
DEFENSE PUTTING THE PRESSURE ON
Through the first five games, the Washington State has racked up the fourth-most sacks (14) in the
Pac-12 and is tied for seventh in the country with 8.8 tackles-for-loss per game (44 Total). The 44
tackles-for-loss are the most by a Cougar team in the first five games since the 1999 team recorded
45 TFLs during that same span. WSU tallied five sacks against Wyoming, three from Ivan McLennan
and two from Kache Palacio, giving McLennan the first three-sack performance since Andy Mattingly
recorded four against Arizona State in 2007. McLennan enters Saturday with a team-best four, tying
for second-most in the Pac-12 while defensive linemen Hercules Mataafa and Darryl Paulo each
own 5.5 tackles-for-loss, tied for fourth in the conference. Against Wyoming, WSU recorded 14 TFLs,
tied for third-most in school history and recently posted 11 TFLs at California.
SPECIAL TEAMS FULL OF NEWCOMERS
Washington State has seen a couple new faces contribute on special teams in the first five games.
Freshman punter Zach Charme owns four punts of 50+ yards and has put five punts inside the 20.
Freshman kick returner Tavares Martin Jr. has been close to breaking a couple long returns this
season with the Belle Glade, Fla. native posting returns of 29 and 34 yard return in his collegiate
debut against Portland State and a 40-yarder at California. He enters Saturday fifth in the Pac-12
averaging 23.3 yards-per-return. Although not a new face but redshirt-sophomore kicker Erik Powell
posted a career day in the win at Rutgers, hitting all three of his field goal attempts from 46, 47 and
37 yards, respectively, setting a career long of 47.
RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA TAKEOVER
The Cougars have tapped into the Rancho Santa Margarita High School pipeline, currently owning
four players from the school in center, Riley Sorenson, tight end Nick Begg and receivers River Cracraft and Kyle Sweet. Cracrafts older brother Skyler is also on the team but played at a different high
school. In the season-opener, former Cougar and NBA Champion Klay Thompson brought the Larry
OBrien Trophy to campus and was recognized during the game. Thompson also starred at Rancho
Santa Margarita HS before heading to Washington State.
POLYNESIAN PIPELINE
The Washington State roster has seen an influx in Polynesian players since Mike Leach and his
coaching staff arrived in 2012. Assistant Head Coach / Defensive Line Coach Joe Salavea, a native
of Pago Pago, American Samoa and a nine-year NFL veteran, has helped bring a number of players to Pullman in his three seasons at Washington State. The 2015 roster has 15 players who are of
Polynesian decent including seven who list their hometown from American Samoa.
LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON
Three Cougars share a unique bond with their dads and/or grandpa, each have worn the crimson
a gray. Redshirt-freshman offensive lineman Andre Dillards dad, Mitch was an offensive lineman
and tight end for the Cougars in the late 1980s; redshirt-sophomore safety Isaac Dotsons dad, Michael was an All-American wrestler for WSU from 1983-86; redshirt-sophomore linebacker Peyton
Pelluers dad, Scott also played linebacker for the Cougs, matching Peytons No. 47 from 1977-80;
Peytons grandpa, Arnie played end for WSU in the mid 1950s and his great grandpa, Carl, played
flanker in the 1920s.

COLLEGE GAMEDAY RECORD


Dating back to the beginning of the 2004 season, ESPNs College GameDay has had the WSU flag
appear throughout the show. The streak is up to 169 after last weeks appearance at Salt Lake City.
Two flags Ol Crimson and Gray have been flown in the background of the GameDay set by dozens
of friends and alumni. The Gray flag was added last year after Whitey was retired in honor of Steve
Gleasons No White Flags. WSU recognized the GameDay flag wavers in a pregame ceremony
prior to the Montana State game in 2010. In addition to the flags that fly, there is a traveling flag

GRINCH, MANNING, HARRELL, MELE JOIN COUGAR COACHING STAFF


Washington State made a couple changes to its coaching staff in the offseason, bringing on firstyear defensive coordinator Alex Grinch who will also work with the Cougars secondary. Grinch
spent the last three seasons at Missouri where he coached the safeties, helping Missouri to a 23-5
record over the past two years including two SEC East Division titles. Roy Manning joined WSU to
coach the outside linebackers after serving the past two seasons at his alma mater, the University of
Michigan, coaching the cornerbacks in 2014 and the outside linebackers in 2013. Making the move
from offensive analyst to outside receivers coach is Graham Harrell who is very familiar with the Air
Raid offense from his record-setting days as a quarterback for coach Mike Leach at Texas Tech.
Eric Mele, who served as the interim special teams coach midway through last season, had the
interim tag removed during the offseason and is the Cougars special teams coach.
CRACRAFT NAMED TO BILETNIKOFF AWARD WATCH LIST
Junior wide receiver River Cracraft was named to the 2015 Biletnikoff Award Watch List, annually
recognizing the outstanding receiver in college football. Last season, three Cougars were named
to the watch list including Cracraft, Vince Mayle and Isiah Myers. Mayle was later selected as one
of the ten semifinalists. Cracraft finished last season seventh in the Pac-12 with eight touchdown
catches, ninth with 66 receptions and tenth with 771 receiving yards in just nine games. The Trabuco
Canyon, Calif. native tallied four 100-yard games and his 66 catches were tenth-most in WSU history.
DAHL NAMED TO OUTLAND TROPHY WATCH LIST
Redshirt-senior left tackle Joe Dahl was named to the Outland Trophy Watch List, given annually to
the nations top interior lineman. Dahl is one of 13 players from the Pac-12 Conference included on
the 81-player list. WSU defensive tackle Rien Long won the award in 2002, also garnering first team
All-America honors while leading the Cougars to the 2003 Rose Bowl. Dahl earned All-Pac-12 honorable mention last season after starting all 12 games at left tackle for the nations top passing offense.
The Spokane, Wash. native surrendered just one sack in the Cougars Pac-12 record 807 pass attempts and earned the WSU Bone Award (given to the teams best offensive lineman each week)
a team-best six times last season. Earlier this summer, Dahl was named to the preseason All-Pac-12
first team by ESPN.com, second team by Athlon Sports and third team by Phil Steele Magazine.

2014 SEASON RECAP


Washington State University went 3-9 overall while playing the nations No. 23 toughest schedule
according to the USA Today last season. The Cougars posted a 2-7 mark in Pac-12 Conference play
with road wins over Utah and Oregon State. The WSU offense led the nation in passing at 477.7
yards per game, the second-highest total in FBS history, trailing only Houstons 511.3 in 1989. WSU
set or tied 42 school, Pac-12 or NCAA records during the season, including quarterback Connor Halliday who threw for an NCAA single-game record 734 yards against California. WSU also placed five
student-athletes on Pac-12 All-Academic teams and five on All-Pac-12 teams during the season.
NEW COUGAR FOOTBALL BROADCAST TEAM
Hall of fame announcer Bob Robertson is in his 49th season calling Cougar football games, and
according to a nation-wide survey of sports information directors, is the longest tenured radio announcer in the country with the next closest being Bill Hillgrove who has announced 45 straight
seasons at Pitt. Robertson began calling WSU games in 1964 and with the exception of a three-year
period in 1969-71, has been calling Cougar games ever since. Robertson now hosts the Cougars pre,
halftime and postgame shows, while also providing analysis during the games. Matt Chazanow will
serve as the new play-by-play voice for Cougar football, mens basketball and baseball broadcasts.
Joining Chazanow and Robertson in the booth for his second season will be Cougar legend Jason
Gesser who quarterbacked WSU to the 2001 Sun Bowl and 2003 Rose Bowl. Returning for her fourth
season as the sideline reporter is Jessamyn McIntyre, an executive producer for 710 ESPN Seattle.
MATT CHAZANOW NAMED VOICE OF COUGARS
Matt Chazanow was named Voice of the Cougars over the summer. Chazanow replaces Bud Nameck on Cougar football and mens basketball broadcasts. Additionally, Chazanow will serve as
the voice of Cougar baseball broadcasts. Chazanow has extensive experience in broadcasting at
the highest level of collegiate football, including calling national play-by-play broadcasts for ACC
football, Big East and ACC postseason basketball, along with SEC and ACC postseason baseball.
As a senior network manager at IMG College in Winston-Salem, N.C., Chazanow has spent the
past seven years managing eight IMG college network broadcasts (Washington State, Arizona, Cal,
Gonzaga, Oregon, Texas, UCLA and Washington). Cougar fans had a chance to hear Chazanow last
November when he called the WSU mens basketball broadcasts at the Great Alaska Shootout.

Favorite Class Taken at WSU and why: Psychology, because it was so interesting to hear about all that goes into understanding why we behave certain ways.
The course provides a broad overview of the terms, processes, principles and
theories related to the scientific study of behavior and mental processes.
Future Plans: Following football would like to be a coach and counselor, working
with kids

WSU Football student-athletes combined for 171 hours of community service


projects during the 2015 spring semester and 357 total hours of community
service during the 2014-15 academic year. Community service projects include
Reading Buddies, Senior Buddies, Coug Pals, Butchs Holiday Bash, Habitat for
Humanity and Special Olympics.
Senior Jeremiah Allison has been involved with many community service
projects in and around Pullman, including assisting in Habitat for Humanity, the
Washington State Athletics Reading Buddies with local elementary schools, Sr.
Buddies at the local retirement home and Butchs Holiday Bash for local children.
He also helped out with National Women in Sports Day and is a member of the
Student-Athlete Advisory Committee for football. Allison was the recent recipient
of the WSU athletic community service award, as he volunteered the most hours
among WSU student-athletes, and works with a local church, setting up weekly
bible studies. He also serves as an outlet to local individuals who lost their parent
or parents to share words of inspiration.
Other Cougar football student-athletes who are involved with Coug Pals this
semester, where they write letters with local elementary schools kids, include
Luke Falk, Dom Williams, Moritz Chris and Ivan McLennan.

FAMILY TIES

BEST IN CLASS
One of the most popular classes at Washington
State among Cougar football student-athletes
is Human Development 101. Students are introduced to human development concepts, issues
and theory spanning early childhood through
aging and death with emphasis on interrelationships between individuals, families, schools,
communities and culture. There is a virtual component to the class, with students participating
in an interactive online simulation in which they
raise a virtual child to the age of 18. The second,
separate simulation makes life choices based
upon their own lives, resulting in seeing life outcomes of their virtual self.
The course includes weekly quizzes, 12 critical
thinking activities, in-class activities and a semester-ending final group project.

This years Cougar football team has many links to former Washington State
student-athletes running through their families. This week, we will focus on
Isaac Dotsons father, Michael, a former WSU wrestler.
Isaac Dotson Father, Michael, wrestled at WSU, was a three-time NCAA
qualifier and also earned All-America status.
Michael Dotson:
- Freshman (1982-83) went 15-21-1 overallfinished third at 1983 Pac-10 Championshipsreached NCAA Championships.
- Sophomore (1983-84) went 32-9-3 at 150 poundswon first 10 matches to

streak from Jan. 11-Feb. 8went 1-1 at Pac-10 Championships.

LOOKING AHEAD
TAYLOR TALIULU
Senior
Senior safety Taylor Taliulu spent his summer doing all the normal activities of a Cougar football
player: conditioning, lifting, attending summer
school. He also added video producer to his plate
as the senior from Aiea, Hawaii interned in the
WSU Athletic department, focusing on content. He
put together a four-part series called The Grind,
(www.youtube.com/watch?v=jutORjRhMt8), detailing WSUs off-season, including workouts and
team-bonding activities. In addition to his video
work, Taliulu also wrote and recorded pumpup music that is played during games at Martin
Stadium. As if he is not busy enough, Taliulu also
has a clothing-design project called Verified, with
t-shirts worn by teammates off the field that he
hopes to expand when time allows. Following
football, Taliulu plans to pursue all three areas,
music, video, design, and he already has a leg up
on the competition.

A pair of Samoans on WSUs football team also have a history playing the other
futbol. Junior Shalom Luani and sophomore Frankie Luvu have both represented
their country in international soccer competitions. Luani, who made the national
team as a senior in high school, also scored a goal in a World Cup first-round
qualifying game in 2012 in American Samoas first official victory in international
soccer. Luvu was a member of the American Samoa U-17 team as a midfielder.
Nickle back Isaac Dotson has spent the past few seasons teaming with another
defensive back Taylor Taliulu, making music. Dotson lays down the beats and the
duo has been featured by the Pac-12 Networks on Pac-12 Profiles, where they
produced the music and lyrics for the piece.

OREGON STATE-WASHINGTON STATE SERIES HISTORY
LAST YEARS MEETING IN CORVALLIS
Nov. 8, 2014
Washington State def. OREGON STATE, 39-32
CORVALLIS, Ore. Redshirt-freshman Luke Falk made
his first start and threw for 471 yards and five touchdowns and Washington State snapped a four-game
losing streak with a 39-32 victory over Oregon State.
Tyler Baker caught nine passes for 113 yards and a
touchdown for the Cougars (3-7, 2-5 Pac-12) who also
snapped a three-game losing streak to the Beavers
(4-5, 1-5). Sean Mannion, who set the Pac-12 all-time
record for passing yards last weekend in a loss to California, threw for 419 yards and a touchdown. Garrett
Owens added four field goals for the Beavers, who
have lost four straight. Falk was making his first start
for the Cougars in place of senior Connor Halliday,
who broke his ankle last weekend in the first quarter
of the Cougars 44-17 loss to USC. Falk was poised and
confident from the start against the Beavers, throwing for 251 yards and three touchdowns in the first half
alone in coach Mike Leachs Air Raid offense. Going
into the game the Beavers had allowed just seven
touchdown receptions over the season, and their
pass defense ranked second in the conference behind
Stanford. The Beavers scored on their first series, a
75-yard, four-play drive capped by Mannions 14-yard
touchdown pass to Connor Hamlett. The Cougars had
a chance to close the gap but Quentin Br eshears 31yard field goal attempt went wide left. Oregon States
Garrett Owens made a 24-yard field goal on the other
end to make it 10-0. Falk found Isiah Myers in the end
zone with 5-yard scoring pass before end of the first
quarter. He put the Cougars in front early in the second with a 21-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Baker.
Owens made a 37-yard field goal for the Beavers to
cut Washington States lead to 14-13 but Falk threw
a 48-yard touchdown pass to Vince Mayle to extend
the Cougars lead. It was Mayles 83rd reception of the
season, a school record. Owens hit again on a 44-yard
field goal, narrowing Washington States lead to 21-16
at halftime. Breshears opened the second half with a
32-yard field goal to extend the lead but the Beavers
running game finally awoke after gaining just 11 yards
in the first half and scored on Terron Wards 1-yard
touchdown run. The pass failed on the conversion but
Oregon State still narrowed it to 24-22. It appeared that
the Beavers had taken over the lead on Mannions 38yard pass play to Victor Bolden, but it was called back
by offensive holding on Hunter Jarmon. Oregon State
settled for Owens 46-yard field goal for a 25-24 lead.
Falk answered by efficiently marching the Cougars
downfield, capping the drive with an 18-yard touchdown scoring pass on the run to Dom Williams. After
the conversion, Washington State led 32-25 with 11:01
left. Falk hit Robert Lewis with a 9-yard touchdown
pass with 5:57 left before the Beavers answered with
another 1-yard scoring run for Ward for the final margin.

LAST MEETING IN PULLMAN


Oct. 12, 2013
Oregon State def. WASHINGTON STATE 52-24
PULLMAN, Wash. Sean Mannion threw for 493 yards
and four touchdowns as Oregon State beat Washington State 52-24. Washington State led 24-17 late in
the third quarter when the Beavers erupted for three
quick touchdowns to take control of the game. Mannion, the Pac-12 passing yardage leader, completed
34 of 51 passes and was intercepted once. Brandin
Cooks caught 11 passes for 137 yards and two touchdowns, and ran for another. Richard Mullaney caught
five passes for 122 yards. Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday completed 26 of 49 passes for
248 yards as the Beavers were able to shut down
WSUs potent pass attack. He was intercepted three
times. Washington State took the opening kick and
drove to the Oregon State 9, but had to settle for an
Andrew Furney field goal. Oregon States Trevor Romaine kicked a 20-yard field goal to tie the score at
3 at the end of the first quarter. On the ensuing series, Halliday passed the Cougars to the Oregon State
3, where Marcus Mason ran it in for a 10-3 lead. The
Beavers replied with a 75-yard drive, with Mannion
throwing a 7-yard touchdown pass to Connor Hamlett
that tied the game at 10. After a penalty-filled drive that
forced WSU to punt, Oregon State took over on its 27
and raced down the field on the strength of a 46-yard
pass from Mannion to Mullaney. But Mannion threw
an interception to Anthony Carpenter in the end zone
to kill the drive. Then Washington State fumbled on its
first play and Oregon State took over on the WSU 36.
Storm Woods scored on a 3-yard run to give Oregon
State a 17-10 lead that stood up at halftime. Mannion
completed 18 of 29 passes for 253 yards in the first
half. A 26-yard punt return by Leon Brooks gave Washington State the ball on OSUs 41 on its first possession of the second half, and the Cougars drove to the 1.
Jeremiah Laufasa plunged over for a touchdown to tie
the score at 17. On their next possession, Washington
State went 80 yards in 10 plays, capped by a 4-yard
pass on 4th-and-goal from Halliday to Vince Mayle
in the end zone for a 24-17 lead with 4:50 left in the
third. The touchdown was set up by a 40-yard reception by Mayle. But Oregon State scored three times
in less than three minutes. First was an 82-yard drive
that ended on a 7-yard touchdown pass from Mannion to Kevin Cummings, tying the score at 24. WSU
was trying to punt on its next possession when a bad
snap gave the Beavers possession on the Cougars 27.
Brandin Cooks ran the ball in from 8 yards out to put
Oregon State ahead 31-24 early in the fourth quarter.
Halliday was intercepted by Rashaad Reynolds on the
first play of the ensuing series, giving the Beavers the
ball in WSU territory. A 30-yard pass to Cooks gave the
Beavers first down at the 1. Storm Woods ran the ball
over for a 38-24 lead with 13:47 left in the game. Washington State self-destructed in a slew of turnovers
while Mannion connected on two touchdown passes
to Cooks in the fourth.

GAME RECAPS
PORTLAND STATE VS. WASHINGTON STATE

WASHINGTON STATE AT RUTGERS

Sept. 5, 2015 Martin Stadium Att.: 24,302 TV: Pac-12 Networks

Sept. 12, 2015 High Point Solutions Stadium Att.: 46,536 TV: ESPNU

PULLMAN, Wash. Portland State of the FCS upset Washington State 24-17 in a driving rainstorm that hampered
WSUs high-flying offense. Portland State scored all 24 of its points in the second half, and won despite being outgained 411 yards to 294 yards. It was the first time Portland State beat a Pacific-12 team in 15 tries, and lifted their record to 3-32 against FBS teams. It was Washington States first loss to an FCS team in 20 outings. Steven Long scored
on a 1-yard run with just over 2 minutes left in the game to lift Portland State to the upset. The rain and unseasonably
chilly temperatures stymied Washington States passing game under quarterback Luke Falk, who this year replaced
national passing leader Connor Halliday. But Portland State had the stronger ground attack, out-rushing Washington
State 233 yards to 104 yards. Portland State quarterback Alex Kuresa completed just 7 of 12 passes for 61 yards,
but led all rushers with 92 yards on 16 carries in the opener for both teams. Falk completed 27 of 41 passes for 289
yards with two touchdowns for WSU. He left the game in the closing minutes with an undisclosed injury. Washington
States opening drive stalled on Portland States 4-yard line, and the Cougars settled for Erik Powells 21-yard field
goal and a 3-0 lead. The Cougars had a bizarre drive on their second possession, moving forward and back over 90
yards because of penalties, and converting three fourth-down plays, before Powells 22-yard field goal attempt was
blocked by Aaron Sibley. Washington States first touchdown came on a screen pass from Falk to Keith Harrington,
which the freshman running back turned into a 24-yard gain that gave the Cougars a 10-0 lead midway through the
second quarter. That lead stood at halftime, as the Cougars outgained Portland State 274 yards to 66 yards in the first
half. Portland State came out strong in the third quarter, driving 75 yards with Paris Penn scoring on a 4-yard rush
to cut Washington States lead to 10-7. On Portland States next possession, Jonathan Gonzales kicked a 42-yard
field goal to tie the score at 10 with 4:37 left in the third. Washington State turned the ball over on downs on its next
possession, with Portland State taking over on its own 28. The Vikings were forced to punt, but WSUs Kyrin Priester
fumbled the catch and Portland State recovered on WSUs 11. Nate Tago pounded over from the 8 to give Portland
State a 17-10 lead with 13:06 left. Tavares Martin returned the ensuing kickoff to Portland States 46, aided by a facemask penalty against the Vikings. Gabe Marks caught a 5-yard touchdown pass from Falk to tie the score at 17 with
9:11 left. Kuresa led Portland State on a 14-play, 69-yard drive that consumed nearly 7 minutes, with Long rushing from
the 1-yard line to lift Portland State to a 24-17 lead with 2:19 left. Sibley intercepted a pass from WSUs Peyton Bender
with 42 seconds left to seal the win.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. Luke Falk led a 10-play, 90-yard touchdown drive, finding River Cracraft with an eight-yard strike
with :13 left to lift Washington State past Rutgers, 37-34. Falk threw for 468 yards and four touchdowns. While Janarion
Grant tried to be the hero for Rutgers, returning two kicks for touchdowns, he couldnt return the final kickoff for a
touchdown. The ball was kicked to Leonte Carroo and Rutgers tried to do their Stanford vs. California impression,
before the ball was thrown forward after several laterals. Grant had the best game of his collegiate career, returning
a kickoff and a punt for late touchdowns. With Rutgers trailing 30-27 with 1:45 left, Grant returned a punt 55-yards for
a touchdown to give Rutgers the 34-30 lead. The playmaker returned a kickoff 100 yards to give Rutgers its first lead of
the game, 27-23 and finished a school record 339 total yards. Washington State answered Grants 100-yard return with
an eight play, 82-yard drive in 2:59. Falk hit Gabe Marks, who made a dazzling 23-yard touchdown catch. On its next
two drives Rutgers negated two touchdowns with penalties. Rutgers running back Josh Hicks fumbled on the ensuing
drive after catching a screen pass and Isaac Dotson recovered for the Cougars. That came one play after a 21-yard
touchdown was negated on a holding penalty on Chris Muller. The Scarlet Knights defense stopped Washington State
on fourth down with 6:10 left, but Justin Goodwins offensive pass interference penalty negated a 29-yard touchdown
catch by Grant. The high-scoring second half came after just one touchdown in the first. Trailing 13-6 and after leading a 52-yard drive to start the second half, Chris Laviano, making his first career start, fumbled near the sideline,
recovered on the 40-yard by defensive tackle Destiny Vaeao. Laviano finished with 204 yards, going 23-of-29 with one
touchdown and an interception. Falk then led a 64-yard touchdown drive with a 7-play drive. Keith Harrington caught
a 5-yard swing pass to make it 20-6 midway through the third quarter. Rutgers answered with a 73-yard touchdown
drive that included a fourth-and-five conversion on a 20-yard pitch and catch from Laviano to Grant. Robert Martin
ended the drive with a 15-yard touchdown run before Washington State blocked the extra point, leaving Rutgers down
20-12. Rutgers stopped Washington State on fourth-and-three with 2:27 left in the third quarter, then embarked on a
68-yard, 7-play drive capped by a 1-yard toss to Matt Flanagan. Carroo caught the two-point conversion to knot it at
20. Falk completed his first 13 passes of the game against Rutgers depleted secondary. Four defensive backs were
dismissed from the team 10 minutes before the season opener last week. Washington States Erik Powell hit field
goals from 46- and 47-yards in the second quarter as Falk went 24-of-29 for 201-yards in the first half.

Sept. 19, 2015 Martin Stadium Att.: 31,105 TV: Pac-12 Networks

Oct. 3, 2015 Memorial Stadium Att.: 42,042 TV: Pac-12 Networks

PULLMAN, Wash. Luke Falk threw for 303 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another as Washington State beat
Wyoming 31-14. Dom Williams caught two scoring passes for Washington State (2-1), which had not won a game in
Pullman since beating Portland State last September. The Cougars had not beaten an FBS opponent at home since
2013. Brian Hill ran for 139 yards for Wyoming (0-3), who came in as a 24-point underdog. Cowboys quarterback Cameron Coffman, who missed last weeks game with an injured knee, completed 25 of 36 passes for 296 yards, with two
touchdowns and an interception. Falk completed 37 of 45 passes and was intercepted once. Wyoming outgained the
Cougars 409 yards to 378. Wyoming scored on a 45-yard touchdown pass from Coffman to Tanner Gentry on the first
possession of the game. Coffman had been intercepted the play before, but the pick was negated by a hand-in-face
penalty against WSUs Hercules Mataafa, giving the Cowboys new life. Washington State tied the game on Falks
1-yard run late in the first quarter, capping a 44-yard drive that began with Wyoming punting out of its own end zone.
Wyoming took possession on its own 37 on the ensuing series and ran the ball six straight times, down to the WSU
5. Then Coffman fired a touchdown pass to Jake Maulhardt for a 14-7 lead. Washington State replied with a 70-yard
drive, with Falk passing 35 yards to Williams in the end zone to tie the game at 14-14. Tristan Bailey missed a 38-yard
field goal attempt on Wyomings next possession. Washington State took over on its 21 and grabbed its first lead of the
game when Keith Harrington ran 36 yards into the end zone for a 21-14 advantage they never relinquished. Harrington
ran or caught the ball on six of the nine plays. Washington States defense held Wyoming scoreless in the second half.
Falk was picked off early in the third by Marcus Epps, giving Wyoming the ball on its 49. But the Cowboys drive
stalled and they turned the ball over on downs. Washington State returned the favor, as Harrington was stopped on
fourth-and-1 and Wyoming got the ball back on the WSU 40. Wyoming couldnt move the ball and had to punt. Early
in the fourth, Gentry fumbled after catching the ball and Mataafa recovered, giving Washington State possession at
midfield. A targeting call against Wyoming cornerback Robert Priester on receiver River Cracraft got Priester ejected
from the game and put WSU on the Wyoming 24. The Cougars drove to the 4, but had to settle for Erik Powells 22-yard
field goal and a 24-14 lead. Falk added a touchdown pass to Williams late in the game.

BERKELEY, Calif. Jared Goff got off to a shaky start and still threw for 390 yards and four touchdowns to lead No.
24 California to a 34-28 victory over Washington State. Goff threw an early interception and was off target on a few
throws before finding his groove. He threw two TD passes in a span of less than 2 minutes late in the third quarter
surrounding a successful onside kick to erase an eight-point deficit and lead the Bears (5-0, 2-0 Pac-12) to their best
start since 2007. Luke Falk threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score for the Cougars (2-2, 0-1), who
have lost 28 of their past 28 games against ranked opponents. Washington State was in position to reverse that trend
after Falk threw a 4-yard TD pass to Gabe Marks midway through the third quarter and Kenny Lawler lost a fumble
on Cals ensuing possession. Stefan McClure then changed the tide on a safety blitz that gave Cal one of its seven
sacks on the day. Erik Powell then missed a 40-yard field goal wide right and Goff took over from there. He drove Cal
77 yards to a score on a 20-yard touchdown pass to Kenny Lawler that made it 28-26. McClures sack was one of two
momentum-changing plays he made in the quarter. Washington State tried a fake punt on the opening drive of the
quarter only to have punter Zach Charme fumble. McClure scooped up the ball and ran 45 yards for the touchdown.
Cal needed another big play from its defense after the Bears were stopped on fourth down at the Cougars 38 with 4:38
to go. Damariay Drew delivered with an interception and Goff converted two third downs to run out all but the final
12 seconds of the game. After winning just six games in coach Sonny Dykes first two seasons, Cal has matched its
best start since 1950 in Dykes third year. The Bears need just one more win to be bowl eligible for the first time since
2011 and are in position to contend in the Pac-12 North. But the schedule gets much tougher from here with road
games against No. 10 Utah and No. 7 UCLA, followed by a home game against No. 17 Southern California and a trip to
Oregon. Cal was stopped twice on fourth down in the first half and Goff threw an interception on the third play from
scrimmage as Washington State broke out to a 21-7 lead. Goff then threw his first of two TD passes to Lawler late in
the second quarter to start the comeback.

2015 COUGAR FOOTBALL


GAME RECAPS
WASHINGTON STATE AT OREGON

Oct. 10, 2015 Autzen Stadium Att.: 57,775 TV: Pac-12 Networks
EUGENE, Ore. Luke Falk threw for season-high 505 yards and five touchdowns, including an unusual scoring pass
in the second overtime, and Washington State snapped an eight-game losing streak to Oregon with a 45-38 victory
in overtime over the Ducks. Knotted at 38, an unnecessary roughness foul on the Ducks helped the Cougars in the
second OT, and then Falk appeared to hit River Cracraft with a pass that landed in the hands of Robert Lewis for a
4-yard touchdown. The play withstood review, and Oregons subsequent drive ended in an interception - sending the
Cougars rushing onto the field in celebration. Falk had marched Washington State (3-2, 1-1 Pac-12) downfield in the
final two minutes of regulation, capping the drive with an 8-yard pass to tie the game at 31 and send it to overtime.
Jeff Lockie hit Bralon Addison with a 9-yard touchdown pass for the Ducks (3-3, 1-2) on the opening possession of the
extra period. The Cougars answered with Falks close 1-yard keeper that withstood a review that again tied the score.
Royce Freeman ran for a career-high 246 yards and two touchdowns, and also caught a TD pass, for Oregon. Both
Lockie and Taylor Alie have rotated. Lockie shouldered most of the load, throwing for 123 yards and two touchdowns.
Both QBs leaned on Freeman, just as they had in last weeks 41-24 victory at Colorado when he ran for 163 yards and
two scores. Freeman ran for 135 yards and a touchdown against Washington State in the first half alone. Falk threw
a 7-yard touchdown pass to Gabe Marks on Washington States first series of the game. Marks has been seeing a lot
of action in coach Mike Leachs offense, going into the game with an average of 91 yards receiving per game, and
leading the Pac-12 with an average of 8.3 catches per game. He finished with eight catches for 111 yards against the
Ducks. Oregon was ranked 114th in the nation for passing yards allowed going into the game, allowing an average of
287.2 yards a game. But the Ducks attempted to switch things up against the Cougars, playing wide receiver Charles
Nelson at safety at times. It was the sophomores first career appearance on defense, although he played at safety
during the Spring Game. Nelson also played at receiver and on special teams during the game. Oregons initial drive
ended with a 26-yard field goal from Aidan Schneider. Oregon switched to Alie midway through its second series, and
he ran 8 yards for a touchdown to give Oregon a 9-3 lead. After Freemans 2-yard touchdown run, Falk hit Marks again
with a 4-yard scoring pass just before the break to cut Oregons margin to 17-14 at halftime. Falk gave the Cougars a
21-17 lead early in the third quarter with a 27-yard touchdown pass to Tavares Martin Jr. But Freeman caught a 17year scoring pass from Lockie that put the Ducks back in front 24-21. He added a 1-yard scoring run early in the fourth
quarter. Erik Powell added a 22-yard field goal for the Cougars before Falks game-tying drive.

2015 COUGAR FOOTBALL

Mike
LEACH
Head Coach
4th Year

Mike Leach is in his fourth season at Washington State University after being named the
Cougars head football coach, Nov. 30, 2011.
In 2014 Leachs offense led the nation in passing at 477.7 yards per game, the second-highest
total in FBS history, trailing only Houstons 511.3 in 1989. WSU set or tied 42 school, conference or
NCAA records during the season, including quarterback Connor Halliday who threw for an NCAA
single-game record 734 yards against California. WSU also placed five student-athletes on Pac12 All-Academic teams and five on All-Pac-12 teams during the season.
In 2013, Leachs second season at the helm of the Cougars, he guided Washington State to
the Gildan New Mexico Bowl, the first bowl game for the Cougars in a decade. Last season the
Cougars ranked fourth in the nation in passing offense, setting a school-record at 368.00 yards
per game, eclipsing the previous mark of 343.3 ypg in 1997. The Cougar offense threw for more
than 400 yards five times, including a 2013 NCAA FBSbest 557 yards at Oregon. Quarterback
Connor Halliday set WSU single-season records for passing yards (4,587), attempts (714) and
completions (449), the first WSU quarterback to surpass the 4,000-yard mark. The Cougars picked
up more national recognition as safety Deone Bucannon became WSUs first All-America firstteam selection since 2005 and was later selected as the No. 27 overall pick in NFL Draft by the
Arizona Cardinals, the first Cougar taken in the first round since 2003. The Cougars also placed
eight student-athletes on Pac-12 All-Academic teams during the season.
In his first season in Pullman, Leachs high-powered offense led the Pac-12 Conference in
passing, averaging 330.42 yards per game. That figure ranked ninth nationally and marked the
second-highest average in school history. Seven times the Cougars threw for more than 350 yards,
including the season-ending, 31-28, overtime win against Washington. In a season that produced
a 3-9 overall record, the Cougars saw a bit of a youth movement as 17 freshmen played and only
four seniors started regularly. Academically, nine Cougars received Pac-12 All-Academic honors
while the 2012 fall semester football GPA of 2.66 marked the first time the football team had been
over a 2.60 GPA for fall semester.
Leach brought a proven record of winning to Pullman. In 10 seasons as a head coach, all at
Texas Tech (2000-09) his program earned 10 bowl bids. In addition, the Susanville, Calif., native
who was raised in Cody, Wyo., recorded a school-record 84 victories during his tenure.
Leading the most prolific passing offense in the country, Leach received three national coach
of the year awards in 2008 - the Woody Hayes Award, Howie Long/Fieldturf Coach of the Year,
and George Munger Award. His offense spreads the field with his exciting brand of football and
guided Texas Tech to six NCAA passing titles and three total offense titles during his 10 seasons in
Lubbock. Leachs offense produced school records in nearly every passing category in 2000, his
first season with the Red Raiders, but surpassed those numbers in each of his next nine seasons.
During Leachs time in Lubbock, Texas, the Red Raiders increased their yards per game by
more than 150 and averaged nearly 20 points more per outing. In the passing game, Texas Tech
threw for about 300 yards more per game in the decade Leach was at the helm.
Leach led Texas Tech to one of the most memorable seasons in school history in 2008 as
the team set a program record with 11 regular-season wins en route to an 11-2 record. The win
total tied the mark, set previously by the 1953 and 1973 Red Raider squads. Numerous accolades
poured in from across the country as an unprecedented four players earned first-team AllAmerica status, in addition to Leachs three coach of the year honors. Quarterback Graham
Harrell, offensive tackle Rylan Reed and offensive guard Brandon Carter each garnered firstteam honors, while wide receiver Michael Crabtree was honored as a unanimous consensus
All-American for the second-straight season.
On the field in 2008, the Red Raiders led the nation in passing for the sixth time in Leachs ten
seasons and ranked among the top five in total offense. Harrell finished his storied career second
on the NCAA career passing yardage list with 15,793 yards. Harrell also broke the career NCAA
passing touchdowns mark with 134.
The Texas Tech program has established itself as one of the nations leading producers of
productive quarterbacks since the 2000 season. Harrell threw for 4,555 yards in his debut as the
starter in 2006 and became the sixth player and third Red Raider in NCAA history to throw for 5,000
yards in a season with his 5,705-yard effort in 2007 and 5,111 yards last season. He also is the third
quarterback under Leach to win nine games in a season and the first Red Raider in history to win
11 in a regular season. Former quarterback Kliff Kingsbury in 2002 and Cody Hodges in 2005 each
posted nine-win seasons during their careers, while 2003 and 2004 signal callers B.J. Symons and
Sonny Cumbie each won eight games in their respective seasons as the starter.
The Red Raiders improved their total offensive numbers from 324.8 yards per game to 531.0
yards per game since Leachs arrival. Leachs first nine seasons at Tech rank as the top nine alltime in total offense, while scoring went from 23 points per game in 1999 to a school-record 43.8
points in 2008. The most significant increase was in the passing game, where the Red Raiders
averaged 475.3 yards per game in 2008 compared to 175.4 yards in 1999.
The running game flourished under Leach as well. Former Red Raider Taurean Henderson
holds the NCAA career record for receptions by a running back. The Red Raiders 28 total rushing
scores in 2008 were the most for a Tech team since the 1993 team scored 30. Despite Techs

offense revolving around the pass, Leach did a tremendous job of incorporating the
running back position into the mix. Henderson finished his career with 303 receptions,
which ranks first in NCAA history among running backs and fourth overall.
The Red Raiders were not known solely for their play on the scoring side of the
ball. The Texas Tech defense also flourished during Leachs 10 seasons. Texas Tech
held opponents without an offensive touchdown a dozen times under Leach, including
seven shutouts. Three of the whitewashes came in 2000 when the Red Raiders tied for
the national lead.
The play of the special teams also improved with each season. Former placekicker
Alex Trlica holds the NCAA record with 233 career extra points and another record
for extra points made without a miss. He finished with 377 career points, which ranks
among the top 10 in NCAA history among kickers. While leading the Red Raiders to 76
wins in his nine seasons, Leach is the only coach in school history to lead ten teams
to bowl games.
Although Leachs presence was felt throughout the team, it also was beneficial for
the players individually. In addition to picking up the Sammy Baugh Trophy in 2007,
Harrell was the recipient of the National Football Foundation and College Football
Hall of Fames Post-Graduate Scholarship and was one of 15 players selected as a
candidate for the prestigious Draddy Award, the academic Heisman. Harrell also
ranked fourth in the 2008 Heisman voting, while Crabtree was fifth. Symons was the
second Tech quarterback to receive The Touchdown Club of Columbus Sammy Baugh
Trophy (Kingsbury in 2002).
Kingsbury, a 2002 All-Big 12 first-team quarterback and sixth-round draft pick of the
New England Patriots, led the Big 12 Conference in several passing categories during
his final three seasons and was a Heisman Trophy candidate in 2002. He also was
named the Verizon Academic All-American of the Year for football and was awarded
an $18,000 postgraduate scholarship by the National Football Foundation and College
Hall of Fame.
In 2004, inside receiver Trey Haverty became Techs first Associated Press AllAmerican since Montae Reagor in 1998, when he was selected to the third team. Free
safety Dwayne Slay earned first-team All-America honors from Sports Illustrated in
2005, marking the first in seven seasons. Slay was one of the countrys most punishing
tacklers that year and led the conference and finished second nationally with eight
forced fumbles.
Leach has coached several players who have gone on to the NFL. While at Tech,
18 players have been drafted and 21 others have signed free agent contracts. In the
spring of 2009, four players were selected among the first four rounds of the NFL Draft,
marking the most successful draft for Texas Tech in the Leach era. Crabtree became
the highest draft pick at No. 10, since Gabe Rivera in 1983. Crabtree, selected by the
San Francisco 49ers, is the highest drafted Tech receiver since Dave Parks went No.
1 overall in 1964.
Safety Darcel McBath was selected by the Denver Broncos in the second round,
while offensive lineman Louis Vasquez was taken in the third by San Diego. Defensive
end Brandon Williams went to the Dallas Cowboys in the fourth.
The program made strides academically as well under Leach. During his 10 years,
Tech was recognized as one of the nations top institutions for consistently being
above a 70 percent graduation rate, according to the American Football Coaches

U.S. SPORTS ACADEMY, 88


PEPPERDINE, 86

Association.
Prior to coming on board at Texas Tech, Leach, in just one season at Oklahoma,
directed a Sooner offense that went from one of the worst in the Big 12 Conference to
one of the best. Under Leachs tutelage, Josh Heupel was named 1999 Big 12 Offensive
Newcomer of the Year. For his efforts, Leach was nominated for the 1999 Broyles
Award as the top assistant coach in the country.
Leach guided an Oklahoma offense that went from 11th in the Big 12 in 1998 to first
in 1999 and 101st in the nation to 11th. In just one year, OUs total offense numbers
improved from 293.3 to 427.2 yards per game.
The rise in passing and scoring offense categories is just as impressive. Oklahoma
went from last to first in the Big 12 in passing offense in one year, from 107th in the
country to ninth. Under Leach, the Sooners improved from 109.9 yards passing per
game to 321.7 yards per game.
In 1998, Oklahoma was last in the Big 12 and 101st in the country in scoring offense
at 16.7 points per game. In 1999, the Sooners improved to second in the league and
eighth in the country in scoring at 36.8 points per game, an increase of just over 20
points per game.
Under Leach, the Oklahoma offense set six Big 12 Conference and 17 OU records.
The Sooners were one of only two schools in the nation to have six players with 20 or
more receptions in 1999.
Prior to joining Bob Stoops Oklahoma staff, Leach served as offensive coordinator
for Hal Mumme at the University of Kentucky and Valdosta (Ga.) State University. For
two years at Kentucky under Mumme, Leach coached the Kentucky Air Raid offense
that was one of the most explosive in Southeastern Conference history. Under Mumme
and Leach, the Kentucky offense set six NCAA records, 41 Southeastern Conference
records and 116 school records in 22 games.
Leachs Kentucky offense featured the talented Tim Couch, who passed for 4,275
yards and 34 touchdowns as a senior and was the top pick of the 1999 NFL Draft.
Named 1996 Division II Offensive Coordinator of the Year by American Football
Quarterly magazine, Leach helped Mumme lead Valdosta State to a 40-17-1 record.
The 1993 Blazer offense smashed 66 school records, 22 conference records and seven
national records. In 1994, Valdosta State advanced to the Division II playoffs with
Leachs offense shattering 80 school records, 35 conference records and seven more
national marks.
Leach and Mumme first teamed up at Iowa Wesleyan College in 1989. From 1989
to 1991 Leach served as offensive coordinator and line coach for an offense that led
the NAIA in passing yardage one season and finished second the other two. Iowa
Wesleyan quarterbacks passed for more than 11,000 yards in Leachs three seasons
and broke 26 national records.
Leach also has made coaching stops in Pori, Finland, where he served as a head
coach in the European Football League (1989), as well as one-year stints at College of
the Desert (1988) and Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo (1987).
After graduating with honors from BYU in 1983, Leach earned a masters degree
from the U.S. Sports Academy and his law degree from Pepperdine University, where
he graduated in the top one-third of his class.
The oldest of six siblings, Leach and his wife, Sharon, are the parents of four
children; Janeen, Kim, Cody and Kiersten.
