What it means for the future (Analysis):
Honestly the Bulldogs played like Garbage for 30 of the 40 minutes in this game. Even their comeback was ugly. But that doesnt matter, WE WON! We won after being down by 15, we won despite Steven Gray shooting Basketballs at a hoop the size of a Golf Ball Hole. Robert Sacre looked lost and frustrated at times as if he was being guarded by a young Shaq in his prime (I can assure you that DeAngelo Casto is no where near a Young Shaq in his prime). Even Elias Harris looked lost in the first half.
And then something happened. The Cougars began to finally miss their shots as well. The Bulldogs started picking apart their offense and forcing turnovers and before we knew what had happened the game was in single digits, the Zags as if on queue decided it was time to use the experience earned in Maui and send the upstart Cougars back to Pullman with a loss. At the end of the day, we won...The Cougars lost and all is well again in Eastern Washington.
