Morning links: Cougars play at Oregon this afternoon
At 4 p.m. Washington State will take on Oregon in Matthew Knight Arena, which somehow still feels new.
Four years after its opening the quarter-of-a-billion-dollar building remains the Pac-12's most dazzling facility and an edifice in which the Cougars have never won. In fact, the last time WSU won in Eugene the Duckers were coached by Ernie Kent.
We wrote earlier this week about Kent's return. The game will be televised on the Pac-12 Networks with JB Long and Mike Montgomery on the call.
