Mondays are always kind of nebulous.

Monday is the day the Cougars hold their weekly press conference, meaning it’s the first chance we reporters have to chat with Mike Leach and players (three of them) since immediately after a game. By necessity, we have to both deconstruct the previous weekend's game and look ahead to the next one.

So, our notebook in today's paper has both Portland State and Rutgers-themed nuggets to chew on. We also have our First Look at the Scarlet Knights. On the blog we have game notes, a video and transcription from Leach's time at the podium and a preview for an Elson Floyd tribute that aired on the Pac-12 Networks last night.
