I am interested in this remark from Shaw:

The wet, blustery conditions made it hard on the offenses.  "It was hard to run, pass and pass protect," Shaw said.

I understand why passes were less accurate in the rain.  I understand why it was hard to make cuts when running.  But what is it about the rain that makes it harder to pass protect?

Our "great" O-Line completely disappeared tonight.  WSU D-line out-physicaled and demolished our O-Line.

I actually thought they were much quicker than our big guys, rather than out-physicaled/demolished our OL.
