Featured Game | Washington State Cougars vs. Stanford Cardinal
What you need to know about Washington State
The Cougars beat the Oregon State Beavers 31-24 on Saturday, behind a big game from QB Jayden de Laura, who passed for 399 yards and three touchdowns. De Laura’s 55-yard touchdown toss up the middle to WR Joey Hobert in the third quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the evening.
Washington State has won two straight (over Cal and Oregon State) after getting blown out by USC and Utah in their first two Pac-12 Conference games. The Cougars’ resurgence can be attributed to the improved play of De Laura and their dominance on the defensive side of the ball.
What you need to know about Stanford
Despite some inconsistencies in his play throughout the 2021 season, sophomore Tanner McKee looks like the next great Stanford quarterback. After outstanding performances against UCLA and Oregon, McKee struggled mightily against Arizona State last weekend throwing three interceptions in the Cardinal’s 45-27 loss.
Stanford hasn’t been particularly strong on the defense in 2021, allowing 408.2 yards and 27 points per game. If the Cardinal defense can step up against Washington State, Stanford could very well leave Pullman with a critical road conference win.
