In particular considering the rather mediocre competition they've played this year.

WSU started out the season with a projected S&P+ ranking of 56th in the nation. That's since dropped to 90th.
Quarterback Luke Falk is hitting at a 73 pct completion rate, but at 6.7 yards per attempt and only 34 pct of plays going for a TD or first down, the offense is playing more underneath than it should.
The 6.3 touches per game at the X (outside) receiver position is half of what WSU averaged last season.
Jeff and I will go more in depth on this next week, but guess how many passes were attempted -- not completed, attempted -- more than 15 yards downfield against Wyoming?
One.
Third Down Conversions. Wazzu is converting only 31.8 pct of the time. This is very bad and earns them a rank of 111th in the nation.
WSU's average yards per plays is 6.1, right around where the Cougars were last season. And, what do you know, the Cougars are averaging 1.5 yards per catch less than they did last season.
