Player of the game

Quarterback Jeff Tuel led two fourth-quarter drives of 51 and 57 yards for touchdowns as the Cougars put 16 consecutive points on the board after trailing 22-7 at the end of the third quarter. Tuel finished with 204 yards passing and two touchdowns.

Play of the game

Alex Hoffman-Ellis intercepted Denarius McGhee's pass at the Montana State 15 and returned it to the 2 with 5:01 left in the fourth quarter, setting up the winning FG.

Turning point

Down 22-7 with 4:12 left in the third quarter, Myron Beck intercepted McGhee's pass to give the Cougars the ball at midfield. The Cougars scored 16 points on the following three drives to take the lead.

Key quote

"Obviously very excited we won the ballgame. I don't know if we played our best game by any means." — WSU coach Paul Wulff.
