Cougs inconsistent in first half

The sixth-ranked Cougars opened the first half tonight looking like just that: sixth-ranked. Charging out to a 13-0 lead over The Citadel, the experienced Cougars were confident and deliberate.

As one might expect. The Bulldogs have just one senior and one junior on their team — the rest are freshmen (and one redshirt freshman).

But after a Citadel timeout six minutes into the game, the young guys surprised WSU with a 13-0 run of their own. They tied it up 13-13, and Tony Bennett had a little talk with his men.
