The 67 Year Plan ...

The 67 Year Plan ...

The 1998 Rose Bowl was played between Wazzu and Michigan. Wazzu was making its first Rose Bowl appearance in 67 years against a team undefeated, ranked #1, and a historic power adding to its legacy. WSU played them toe to toe until the end, having a legit shot at winning.

It has also been 67 years since Wazzu was in a position like it is this week in basketball. In 1941 the Cougs lost in the championship game. The Sweet 16 match up on Thursday night against #1 overall seed North Carolina is the same sort of opportunity the 1998 Rose Bowl team faced.

Opportunites like this only come along every so often. Good luck guys. Go bust a whole lot of brackets ...

... and you Dawg fans should not fret ... your guys made the Sweet 16 of the CBI ... whatever that is ...
