I get the case to be made for Washington State at home here, but the Wildcats have a lot to like about their matchup with the Cougars, namely being that they match up well with Washington State from a stats standpoint. I know the Cougars have the tougher schedule, but they haven’t really done anything with it and Weber State isn’t going to be a team that gets intimidated. Give me the Wildcats and the points here.
