Portland State Drubbed By Washington State In Season Opener

Portland State drubbed by Washington State in season opener

Cougars score 52 unanswered points in rout

Vikings fall to 0-1 on the season

PORTLAND, Ore. - The Portland State Vikings were drubbed by the Washington State Cougars 52-17 in their season opener Thursday night at Providence Park.

The Cougars scored 52 unanswered points after the Vikings took an early 10-0 lead.

Washington State quarterback Jayden de Laura threw for 245 yards and four touchdowns, while running back Nakia Watson rushed for 119 yards and two touchdowns.

Portland State quarterback Davis Alexander threw for 227 yards and two touchdowns, but he was also intercepted three times.

The Vikings fell to 0-1 on the season, while the Cougars improved to 1-0.

What went wrong for Portland State?

  • The Vikings were outmatched in every phase of the game.
  • The Cougars' offense was too much for the Vikings' defense to handle.
  • The Vikings made too many mistakes, including three interceptions.

What's next for Portland State?

The Vikings will host the Idaho Vandals next Saturday at Providence Park.

The Vandals are also 0-1 on the season after losing to the Eastern Washington Eagles 45-13 last week.

The Vikings will need to play much better if they want to avoid starting the season 0-2.

Conclusion

The Vikings' season opener was a disaster, but there is still plenty of time to turn things around.

The Vikings need to learn from their mistakes and come out with a better effort next week against Idaho.

If the Vikings can do that, they can still have a successful season.
