Homecoming arrives early for the Cougars, who will be seeking a second straight win against a San Diego State squad that has momentum of their own coming out of the opening week.

The Washington State Cougars survived a tougher-than-expected opener against Idaho to open the Jimmy Rogers era with a win, but they will need a far better effort on offense in all facets against a superior San Diego State squad.

Banking on better health moving forward, the Seahawks locked up one of their young tackles with a multi-year extension, while the Huskies and Cougars ramped up preparation for Week 2 with sights on a second straight win to open the college football season.

The Cougars opened the Jimmy Rogers era with a victory, though it didn’t come as easily as many hoped against an FCS rival with the offense largely being punch-less in a tight 13-10 win over Idaho.

Entering the first season of the Jimmy Rogers era, there’s plenty of uncertainty and intrigue revolving around the Washington State Cougars.

Washington State has plenty of quality options under center as the Cougars remain coy on who will start at quarterback against Idaho.

With John Mateer now at Oklahoma, Washington State will turn to Zevi Eckhaus as the new starter under center. How will the rest of the depth chart look entering year one under new coach Jimmy Rogers?
