Weekend Recap - Week One

After a great opening weekend of college football the Pac 12 proved there are more questions to be asked than there were answers given in fall camps. 

For example here are a few questions

1.  We knew the Oregon State Beavers were decimated by injuries in the off season but are their cupboards really that bare?

2.  Did the Seattle Hype machine forget to mention that the Husky Football team greatly underachieved on Saturday?

3.  If Jordan Wynn is as good as everyone says then is 100 yards passing considered awesome?

4.  Seriously USC at home?????

5.  Is it finally time to recognize that opposing defensive coordinators have figured out ways to slow and beat Oregon?

6.  Is Stanford a world beater or afraid to play real opponents?

7.  Is Arizona even going to try to run the ball this year??

8.  If ASU was looking past UC Davis should Missouri be worried??

9.  Is Colorado's coach John Embree drinking Lava Flows in excess??

10.  Did Cal dominate or just win?

11.  Will UCLA figure out how to start a game in 2011?

With those questions out of the way it is time to ask the real question of the weekend.  Did WSU really take care of business the way they were suppose too?  I cannot remember being more nervous to watch a game with a 27 point spread.  However, once the Cougs were up 40-0 at halftime I was more flabbergasted.  Even more impressive was the abscence of Jeff Tuel at the helm. 

There were really few aspects of the game that the Cougs did not deliver in.  The highly touted WR's corps played lights out with 11 Cougar receivers catching passes.  How about we has 8 players listed with rushing attempts and all of them rushed for positive yardage for the game?  How about 0 sacks allowed and no turnovers?  How about a 51 yard field goal?  How about a pick 6?  How about 6 sacks?

Realistically, the Cougs came out and played exactly the way they should have and it has been a long time.  While Jeff Tuel was lost for a period of time Lobster stepped in and showed the benefit of having a 5th year senior as a back up.  The Mitz, Mason, Winston, Mason combo at running back should keep defenses honest. 

How about this for the recap  WSU 64, Idaho State 21.  Is there really too much more to go over?
