And yet, they hold the key decision to deciding the Pac’s fate as we await the next realignment move.
On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, Spencer McLaughlin discusses the importance of the Bay Area schools in the realignment landscape.
For Washington State, as they look to the future, the opportunity to raise their athletic profile will arise on more than one occasion in 2023—but the first one is Week Two against Wisconsin.
Spencer goes through and predicts every game for WSU in 2023 as Jake Dickert looks to continue his resume as a winning football coach in Pullman.
The Cougars have several opportunities to make a statement sort of victory, but also key scheduling breaks that work out well for them especially in the second half of the season.
