Against Washington, the Cou
gars scored 17 unanswered points
to take control in the second quar
ter. They piled up 520 yards, 20
more than their season average,
and nearly matched their average
of42 points. They have the nation’s
second-hottest offense after Ne
braska.
The offensive output came in a
persistent rainstorm.
“The rain must have been the
tears of Babe Hoi lingberry and Mel

McWashington, referring to the
coach and best player on that 1931
Rose Bowl team. That team lost
24-0 to Alabama.

The 10th-ranked Cougars will
play top-ranked Michigan, a team
they have never beaten in three
previous encounters.
“ We have a month to prepare for
them,” said quarterback Ryan Leaf,
a Heisman Trophy hopeful. “ We can
play with anybody in the country.”
Defensive lineman Leon Bender
said he didn’t expect the Cougars
(10-1, 7-1) to be highly regarded
by odds-makers. “ I expect us to be
20-point underdogs," Bender said.
“1 expect for us not to have any
