The Cougars look to get right after falling to Iowa last week.
Tonight, Washington State takes on the Northern Colorado Bears as the Cougars look to extend their home winning streak to four straight to start the 2024 season. The game will tip at 7:30 PST and will air on ESPN+. The Cougs lost their last outing in a hard-fought game against Iowa to the tune of 76-66 in the Quad Cities Hoops Classic, a matchup in which both teams entered undefeated.
Northern Colorado is 3-1 so far with their only loss coming by two points to the Colorado Buffaloes on the road in Boulder, so they are not a typical mid-major squad that will be a pushover victory. They have four players averaging double figures, including. Hawthorne is coming off of a 21-point outing versus South Dakota State, and put up 19 against the aforementioned Buffaloes.
Given they are nearly 12-point favorites, the Cougars should win this game at home and get to 4-1 on the season, but they cannot overlook a team that took Colorado to the brink of an upset on the road. With strong performances from its stars, Washington State should right the ship and stay undefeated in Pullman.Keenan Womack is a sportswriter native to Dallas, Texas, who has spent the last 12 years in Austin, the home of his alma mater, the University of Texas.
