Washington State pulled off a major upset win at home against the preseason Pac 12 favorite USC Trojans on Friday night. It was a fantastic game that you might have missed if you’re not living on the West Coast (the game ended well after midnight Eastern time). Have no fear, Twitter is here to save the day with some awesome videos and images from the night.

WSU QB Luke Falk dominated the game, finishing with 340 yards and two touchdowns, but his running back Jamal Morrow also had a terrific game with 138 total yards and two scores of his own. Falk should absolutely enter the Heisman conversation with his performance in such a signature win.
Washington State now enters the playoff picture with this massive victory. They are undefeated at 5-0 and have proven they can compete with the class of the conference. They still have to play at Oregon, Stanford and travel to #20Ā Utah and #6 Washington back-to-back to close the season. Their schedule is tough, but they now have the confidence to make a miraculous run.Ā Falk and Mike Leach‘s offense can take them to places Washington State hasn’t been.
Perhaps I’m getting ahead of myself. For now, Washington State should enjoy the heck out of this win. Major victories over storied programs don’t come around all that often.
