Minshew's 7 TDs lead No. 8 Washington St over Arizona 69-28

PULLMAN, Wash. -- This record-setting season just keeps getting better for Gardner Minshew . Washington State's star quarterback broke a school mark with seven touchdown passes and the No. 8 Cougars routed Arizona 69-28 on Saturday night to boost their longshot bid for a spot in the College Football Playoff. "In high school I got six one time," Minshew said. "I never done seven. It was pretty crazy tonight." Washington State (10-1, 7-1 Pac-12, No. 8 CFP) raced out to a 55-14 lead at halftime and was not seriously threatened on the way to its seventh consecutive victory. The Cougars host archrival No. 17 Washington next Friday, with the Apple Cup winner taking the Pac-12 North title. With their 10th win of the season, the Cougars matched a program record last accomplished in 2003. They also won their 13th straight home game and set a season high for points.
