My fear is that Rolovich is using, with success, this self-made controversy as an ass-backwards motivational tool for his team. Turning it into an "us against the world" argument. I watched a bit of the WSU-OSU game and, from my admittedly naive perspective, the Cougars looked so much better than the team that got stomped by USC.
I think it was Jon Wilner who pointed this out:
USC 45, WSU 14
OSU 45, USC 27
WSU 31, OSU 24

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
