No way to slice it, last weekend sucked. We had a big time opportunity at a road win vs. Cal, and then failed to show up vs. Stanford. This team needs a healing. What's that you say? WSU and UW are coming to town? Perfect!
Game 1 is against Ernie Kent's upstart squad from the Palouse. They've won twice on the road this year (@OSU, @ASU) and boast a good rebounder in Hawkinson...but this one, much like the first, should not be close.
Game 2 is against Lorenzo Romar's group of underachieving McDonald's All-Americans. They are win-less on the road this year, and I would expect that to remain the same.
We beat these two teams by a combined 63 points last month, so this should be a nice home stand to "get well" as we get ready for the big three game roadie before wrapping up at home.
This will be a weekend of scoreboard watching with Cal in Arizona and USC hosting the Oregon schools.
