    BOB ROBERTSON, NATIONS LONGEST TENURED RADIO ANNOUNCERHall of fame announcer Bob Robertson is in his 48th season calling Cougar football games, andaccording to a nation-wide survey of sports information directors, is the longest tenured radio an-nouncer in the country with the next closest being Bill Hillgrove who has announced 44 straightseasons at Pitt. Robertson began calling WSU games in 1964 and with the exception of a three-yeaperiod in 1969-71, has been calling Cougar games ever since. Last season, Robertson slid over from

    his familiar play-by-play role and passed the microphone to Bud Nameck. Robertson now hosts theCougars pre, halftime and postgame shows, while also providing analysis during the games.

    COLLEGE GAMEDAY RECORDIn addition to Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit and Lee Corso, ESPNs College GameDay has had anotheconstant the WSU flag, which this weekend will be making its 160th consecutive appearanceon the weekly show, dating back to the beginning of the 2004 season.

He owns 90career touchdown throws, third-most in Pac-12 Conference history, trailing Matt Barkleys record of116 and Matt Leinarts 99. In his 489-yard performance against Arizona, Halliday also broke Brinksschool record for career passing yards (10,913). Halliday broke the record on his 37-yard touchdown

    throw to Isiah Myers. He owns 11,304 career passing yards, fourth-most in Pac-12 history.

    HALLIDAY OWNS OTHER NCAA FBS RECORDSConnor Hallidays 734 passing yards against California isnt the only NCAA record he owns. Last sea-son he went 58-of-89 for 557 yards and four touchdowns at No. 2 Oregon, setting Pac-12 and WSUsingle-game records for pass completions and attempts in addition to records he broke for passingyards and total offense. His 58 completions tied an NCAA Division I record with Andy Schmitt ofEastern Michigan in 2008 and were the second-most completions in NCAA history. The 89 pass at-

    tempts were the second-most in NCAA history and were a Division I record, surpassing the previousmark of 83 thrown by Drew Brees in 1998.

    COUGAR OFFENSE BREAKS OWN PAC-12 RECORDS AGAINST CALIFORNIAWSUs 734 passing yards against California were Pac-12 and WSU records while the 812 yards of

    total offense was a WSU record, breaking the 706 set against Portland State in week three. Theprevious passing mark was also set week three, passing for 630 yards as a team (Halliday 544, Falk86), breaking the 557 set at Oregon last season. Against Portland State, the Cougars also passed forseven touchdowns, tying the school record (UNLV - 2011).

    NEW-LOOK OFFENSIVE LINEThe Cougars returned two starters from last year in left tackle Joe Dahl and left guard GunnarEklund who combined for 33 starts to start the season, the fewest by any Pac-12 offensive line.WSU replaced the center and right side of the line after all three positions were occupied by seniorsin 2013. Sophomore center Riley Sorenson and redshirt-sophomore Eduardo Middleton were theonly two with game experience, appearing in a combined four games last season while redshirt-freshman Cole Madison has started each game at right tackle in his first collegiate season. The2014 offensive line is the biggest (weight) its been since coach Mike Leach arrived with the line nowaveraging 309.4 lbs, up 20 pounds from 288.2 in 2013 and 288.6 in 2012.

    MORE STRIDES FROM THE OFFENSIVE LINEWashington State showcased an improved offensive line last season, nearly doubling rushing yardsand allowing 25 fewer sacks than 2012. Last year, WSU rushed for 120 yards and two touchdowns atAuburn, 113 yards against Oregon State and 101 at Arizona. WSU finished the year with 10 rushing

    touchdowns in 2013 after posting six rushing scores all of 2012. The offensive line notched a couplemilestones last season, not allowing a sack against Southern Utah and Utah. The Utes had entered

    the week leading the country in sacks. The Cougars finished the season with the second-best passattempts-to-sack ratio in the Pac-12 Conference at 23.9 (756/32), going the second-longest betweenallowing sacks while dropping back to pass the most times in Pac-12 history. This season, theCougars limited Oregon to just one sack and did not allow a single sack in games against PortlandState and California.

    Arizona State def. WASHINGTON STATE, 55-21PULLMAN, Wash. Taylor Kelly threw five touchdownpasses and ran for two more scores as No. 25 ArizonaState beat Washington State 55-21 on a Thursdaynight.

    Kelly threw for 275 yards and rushed for 66 to help theSun Devils (6-2, 4-1 Pac-12) qualify for a bowl and wintheir first road game of the season after two losses.

    Connor Halliday had 300 yards passing for WashingtonState (4-5, 2-4), which has lost four of five. Halliday,who set an FBS record in his previous game with 89pass attempts in a loss to No. 2 Oregon, was 29 of 54with two touchdowns.

    Marion Grice ran for 94 yards as ASU scored at least50 points for the fifth time this season. Kelly completed22 of 31 passes and was intercepted once.

    Arizona State scored three times in the first quarter,thanks in part to great field position, and three more

    times in the second to build a lead the Cougars couldnot overcome.

    Kelly marched the Sun Devils 67 yards on their firstpossession, scoring on a bootleg from 7 yards out.

    Washington State went three-and-out on its first threepossessions. After the Sun Devils took over on theCougars 36 following a short punt, Grice ran the ballfive times to get down to the 6. Kelly bootlegged intothe end zone for a second time to give ASU a 14-0 lead.

    Washington States Gabe Marks fumbled after an 18-yard reception, and Robert Nelson recovered to giveArizona State the ball on the WSU 39. Kelly fired an11-yard touchdown pass to Jaelen Strong all alone inthe end zone for a 21-0 cushion with 3:20 left in the first

    quarter.

    Marks redeemed himself on the first play of the sec-ond, taking a short pass from Halliday and weavingthrough the ASU defense for a 34-yard touchdown.

    Arizona States Deantre Lewis fumbled on the nextseries, and WSUs Ioane Gauta recovered. But theCougars had to punt and Kelly moved the Sun Devils 62yards, finishing with a 7-yard touchdown pass to D.J.Foster for a 28-7 lead.

    After another three-and-out for WSU, Kelly fired a 51-yard touchdown pass to Richard Smith on the next playfrom scrimmage.

    The Cougars turned the ball over on downs, and fiveplays later Kelly hit Chris Coyle with an 8-yard touch-down pass to make it 42-7 with 1:40 left in the first half.Grices 32-yard reception was the big play on the drive.

    Washington State replied with its best drive. The Cou-gars marched 75 yards and Rickey Galvin caught a15-yard touchdown pass from Halliday to cut ASUsadvantage to 42-14 at halftime.

    Washington State scored first in the second half, ona 4-yard run by Jeremiah Laufasa to make it 42-21.The Sun Devils replied with Kellys 23-yard touchdownpass to Foster.
