Well, the weekend's again arrived, and we'll therefore take a well-earned breather from the Totally Screwed up Emerald City 2011 Municipal Election Race, (and also broach a subject quite a bit less distasteful) and ineluctably zero in on another subject that's quite a bit more soothing and near and dear to our hearts... What else... WSU Wildcats Football!
Accordingly we' ll note that The WSU Wildcats are back home this evening, where they'll face Big Sky Conference peer Sacramento State U. at 6:00 p.m. (MT) at the newly re-turfed Stewart Stewart Stadium. On the heels of last week's Utah State ass-thrashing (USU 54, WSU 17), it'll definitely be fascinating to see what Coach Mac pulls out of his magic bag of tricks this week, wethinks.
Just so's we can help get WSU Wildcat Fans' minds right pre-game, the Standard-Examiner offers a little useful pre-game hype this morning...
And the Sacramento Bee has a few weak words on the topic, too, written apparently by a free-lance sports writer hack, who probably earned a few shekels for this lightweight (and weakly-researched writeup), in spite of the fact that this guy has the chronological sequence of WSU's Wyoming and Utah State games inexplicably and entirely reversed. Okay. Here's the lame Sac Bee story anyway, for what it's worth:
And here's the KZNS internet broadcast link, by the way, for streaming game audio:
For our readers' convenience we'll continue to expend endless time trying to link this evening's other obscure possible game broadcast audio and video links. (Remember the game doesn't start until 6:00 p.m.)
It'll definitely be fascinating to see what (if anything) Coach Mac pulls out of his bag of magic tricks tonight, No?
Whatever happens from here on out, however, let's not let WSU Wildcats fans (ironically) let "the cat" get your tongues, heheheh.
Update 9/17/11 6:24 p.m.: Oh yeah... almost forgot. Don't fail to check out WSU Athletics' Twitter Feed, which is alwa
ys good for timely and informative play-by-play info:Update 9/17/11 9:40 p.m. (via Bob Becker): Final score 49-17 WSU. Track meet. WSU has discovered some running backs. Slippery lil suckers. Impressive. And an O line that opened some very large holes.

Update 9/20/11 12:21 p.m.: Thanks to the ever-sharp-eyed Perfessor Becker, we now learn that Saturday's WSU v. Sac State blowout scat-back videos are now up on YouTube:
Whoa!....
