Washington State travels to Colorado State in what may be a prelude to a conference rivalry someday

Washington State travels to Colorado State in what very well could be a prelude to a conference rivalry. That's if Mountain West and the remaining Pac-12 teams decide to one day align. The Cougars were one of the teams left scrambling after the mass exodus of teams from the Pac-12 to other conferences. Washington State beat Colorado State 38-7 last season at home. The Cougars are 5-1 since 2000 when playing on football fields over 5,000 feet in elevation.
