Brisendine Ties It Up, But Defense Can't Hold at C.S.U
Brisendine tied it up. That's the headline you want, the one that makes you think the Cougs found a way. But then the defense couldn't hold at C.S.U., and a tie is just a tie when you needed a win. That's the kind of Saturday that leaves you staring at your phone, trying to figure out what went wrong after the good part happened. We've seen this script before, and it never gets easier to watch. The offense did its job, got the knot on the scoreboard, and handed it to the other side of the ball. That's where the story turned. And not in our favor. If you need a palate cleanser after that one, go check out our coverage of the rowing team's final fall race at Head of the Lake. Those Cougs put in the work on the water, and it's a different kind of fight than what we saw at C.S.U. Sometimes you need to remember the program is bigger than one frustrating afternoon. This one stings because it was right there. Go Cougs.
