It's not clear if quarterback Zevi Eckhaus will remain with WSU next season, but he made his case for the Cougars' starting QB job in Friday's Holiday Bowl.

The scoreboard doesn’t accurately paint the picture of how well-fought the 2024 Holiday Bowl was. While the Syracuse Orange won comfortably 52-35 over the Washington State Cougars, the game was a war until about the last 10 minutes of gametime.

The best play Zevi Eckhaus made in Friday’s Holiday Bowl, even in his Washington State squad’s 52-35 loss to No. 22 Syracuse, was never going to end up on SportsCenter’s top plays. It was never going to register in any type of national way.
