In their last game against Stanford Cardinal, the Cougars demonstrated a solid offense and defense, securing a 72-59 win. They outrebounded Cardinal by a significant margin of 37 to 21 and had an impressive field goal percentage of 47 percent. Their three-point shooting was also on point at 39 percent, which contributed greatly to their victory.


The previous game saw an even more dominant display from the Cougars as they overpowered California Golden Bears with an 84-65 scoreline. The team's offensive prowess was evident with a remarkable field goal percentage of 55 percent and two-point shooting at an outstanding rate of 60 percent. They also excelled in rebounding once again with a total of 39 rebounds compared to Golden Bears' 28.

Even when playing away against Oregon Ducks, the Cougars managed to pull through with a win despite it being closely contested. They finished that game with similar stats in terms of shooting percentages and rebounding as seen in other games.


The trend is clear: Washington State has been improving its play significantly, especially when it comes to shooting accuracy and controlling the boards – both crucial factors that could influence the outcome against USC Trojans.


Fans should expect another energetic performance from Washington State as they look forward to extending their winning streak at Beasley Coliseum. With consistent scoring from inside and beyond the arc coupled with aggressive rebounding strategies, there's every reason for optimism among Cougar supporters.


Mark your calendars for March 1st at Beasley Coliseum where you can catch all the action live on Pac-12 Network starting at 7:30 PM local time (US/Pacific).
