WSU faces E. Washington for 1st time since 1908

By NICHOLAS K. GERANIOS

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) - Any chance that Washington State would look past Eastern Washington evaporated when the Eagles pounded Idaho last week.

As added incentive, Washington State (0-1) will be playing its first game Saturday in the renovated Martin Stadium, which underwent a $65 million upgrade during the offseason that added premium seats and a new press box in a three-story addition.

Eastern Washington (1-0), an FCS power two years removed from a national championship, traveled to Idaho and beat the FBS Vandals 20-3 last week behind a stout defense and a passing attack led by former SMU starting quarterback Kyle Padron.

That caught WSU's attention.

This is the first game since 1908 between the neighbors, whose campuses are 60 miles apart. Washington State won the last meeting 73-0.
