The 1994 Washington State Cougars football team was an American football team that represented Washington State University in the Pacific-10 Conference (Pac-10) during the 1994 NCAA Division I-A football season. In their sixth season under head coach Mike Price, the Cougars compiled an 7–4 regular season record (5–3 in Pac-10, fourth), and outscored their opponents 192 to 136.[1] [2] The preseason media poll had picked WSU to finish last in the conference.[3]
The team's statistical leaders included Chad Davis with 2,299 passing yards, Frank Madu with 494 rushing yards, and Albert Kennedy with 551 receiving yards.[4]
Home games were played on campus at Martin Stadium in Pullman. The Cougars hosted and won the Apple Cup, (their second straight victory over the Huskies on the Palouse),[5] [6] and went to the second Alamo Bowl; they defeated Baylor for their eighth win,[7] and were 21st in the final AP poll.
