The original piece? It is, to quote another movie from a long-lost era, as dead as Julius Caesar.

And, like Gene Wilder, we hoped it could dance without burning down the building. The final product resembled Frankenstein’s monster a bit, assembled from dead parts re-animated to make something that lumbered into your homes. After the last-second touchdown, rewrite again. After Cam Ward’s ill-advised screen pass, rewrite. After the long touchdown pass put Oregon ahead, rewrite. Detonate the first part, blow up another section and rebuild it all. The late collapse meant a massive re-write. The entire first part of the column reflected that. Well, not that dramatic, but you get the picture. But, like the Cougars, we found a way to overcome adversity and shock the world. We are on a trip – hey, when you are retired September is a great time to visit family – in California, so finding a place to cover the WSU game wasn’t as easy as at home.

Trying to put enough words in the software so that the last few minutes can be spent polishing. It’s somewhat amorphous, but is basically as soon as possible after the game ends. Like all newspaper products, the TV Take has a deadline. But, like WSU, we rewrote the script late and the outcome wasn’t as enjoyable for Coug Nation. Our TV Take in this morning’s paper, written during the Cougars heartbreaking defeat, held the potential for being a lot better. And talk about how a late change in fortune changes everything for us.

Before we get to the links, including one to what we spent our late afternoon writing yesterday, we want to pull back the curtain a little bit.

The most egregious example, of course, was the 50-yard game winner when, once again, a Duck got free deep over the middle. Saturday it showed as Oregon receivers continually took advantage of WSU breakdowns in the secondary. That doesn’t happen in many spots for the Cougars. Teams like Oregon, Utah and USC and even Washington can lose a four-star talent and replace them with another four-star. The Cougar defense is better than it’s been but, as often happens in Pullman, the fall off between first and second string is more pronounced for Washington State.

Maybe if Lee had been healthy, the outcome would have been different, even with the Oregon advantage up front.

The Ducks dominated the line of scrimmage. It couldn’t, even with Ward’s feet in the mix. That last part was especially hurtful late in the game when WSU needed to run clock, if possible, and salt away its lead. Oregon had four sacks, 11 tackles for loss and stymied the Cougar running game. On the other side of the ball, if Ward didn’t get rid of the ball quickly he had to move, a lot, to avoid the rush. But that was the case, as Sam Lockett III and Jaden Hicks split 22 tackles. It’s never good to have your top two tacklers be your starting safeties.

And, with strong safety Jordan Lee out with an injury, that group was a little short-handed. That left the back end, especially the safeties, vulnerable. The only way WSU could get the transfer from Auburn off his spot was to bring extra men, often from the secondary. Neither outstanding edge rushers really put any pressure on Duck quarterback Bo Nix. Brennan Jackson? Three, with one quarterback hurry. The other is bit more complex, and we’ll get to it in a second. The Washington State defensive pressure just didn’t exist. Except to point out two key elements in Oregon’s remarkable 44-41 comeback over the Cougars. Instead, we will try to explain what happened in Pullman, mainly around 4:30 Saturday afternoon. But someone else had already attacked that angle, so there was no way we were going to pile on.

Last night we thought about writing this morning about a certain derogatory term in conjunction with Washington State football.
