My reactions to the game:
1) very good, and surprising (to me) effort on defense.
2) offensively, the line was just very poor. ultimately very difficult to win if your linemen are getting ransacked one-on-one. Poor games from Burkett and Bright, by my eye.
3) Costello really needed to keep it on some read-options. Had some frustrating misses. Would've helped if the refs gave us a PI call or two.

Right, WSU is a very good defense, and our OL just kinda shit the bed. This team just isn't built to be able to consistently get back from being behind the chains early, but how many times did we have 2nd-and-6 compared to 2nd-and-12? That's a brobdingnagian difference for us.

Costello left some plays on the field, but so did everyone. We just weren't as sharp as we needed to be to overcome the OL getting whipped.

The weird part is that we still control our destiny for the Pac-12 CG, we just need to beat Washington.
