Washington State finished the regular season with an overall record of 10–2 and mark of 7–1 in the conference play, sharing the Pac-10 title with USC. They defeated the Trojans in overtime in early October,[1][2] but lost to unranked Washington in triple overtime in the Apple Cup at Pullman;[3] WSU regrouped and beat UCLA by three touchdowns two weeks later.[4] The seventh-ranked Cougars were invited to the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day, but were soundly defeated by the Oklahoma Sooners,[5][6][7] and dropped to tenth in the final rankings.

The Rose Bowl was the final game for Price at Washington State. He left to become the head football coach at the University of Alabama, but never coached a game for the Crimson Tide.[7][8][9][10][11] Bill Doba, longtime defensive coordinator for the cougars, was promoted to head coach for the 2003 season, and he led the Cougar program through 2007.[9][12]
