After a loss of seven yards, and after Fa’amoe was flagged for a false start, WSU was looking at third-and-20 deep in its own territory. Seemingly conceding the series, the Cougs called a QB keeper for Mateer, who gained 10 yards. Punter Nick Haberer then came out to boot it away.

The Cougars dropped their third straight game as WSU's offense sleepwalked through the second half in a loss to Wyoming.
