Our struggling Weber State Wildcats (1-9, 1-6) are back on the road this afternoon, for their final game of the Big Sky Conference season, where they'll face off against an equally downtrodden Idaho State Bengals (1-9, 0-7) football squad at 4:00 p.m. in Pocatello. There's not much left for either of these cellar-dwelling teams to play for except pride; but as every red-blooded American football fan is well aware, pride can still be a powerful motivator.
Here's the pre-game setup from the Salt Lake Tribune and Idaho State Journal. (For reasons unknown, our usually trusty Standard-Examiner doesn't have a stirring pre-game story up on it's website this morning, so we'll take whatever we can get):
- Weber State football: Wildcats have last shot at conference victory
- Woeful Weber and ISU share misery
We'll keep the lights on for anyone who'd like to comment on the game.
Go Wildcats!
Yes! Weber County Forum will continue to support our WCU Wildcats, come hell or high water!
Update 11/17/12 6:46 p.m.: Final-final... WSU over ISU 40-14!
Update 11/18/12 9:00 a.m.: The WSU Athletics site and Standard-Examiner provide the post-game stories:
Congrats to the Wildcats for closing out the season in style!
