College Basketball Begins

College basketball began this week for the University of Washington. They won their opening game on November 6 against Western Kentucky 73-55. This game they started out slow however went on a good run in the first half and then again a couple good runs in the second half . On Friday they played the Auburn Tigers on the road but got dominated pretty badly. They started out slowly and never recovered. They lost to the #11 ranked Tigers 88-66. They hope to rebound against University of San Diego this coming Monday back home and then on Monday November 18 they will be on the road again this time against Santa Clara.

The Washington State Cougars start their season at home in Pullman against Nicholls State out of Louisiana.  Nicholls state has already played two games and are 1-1. This should be a good test for the Cougars to see where they plan to go.

In football the Huskies have this weekend off for a bye. They will play Oregon State next weekend followed by the Apple Cup against the Cougars The Oregon State Beavers haven't had a good season though they did a comeback against Colorado winning after being down by 31 points. The Cougars should be favored and they win the game then Apple Cup will be for who represents the Pac-12 North in the Pac-12 Championship the following week. The Cougars will be playing Colorado on the road so I am sure be a tough game since the Buffaloes will want to recover from the game against the Beavers but the Cougars should win.

In the NFL the Seahawks will be on the road in LA taking on the Rams. The Rams are healthier than the Seahawks and they are a ten point favorite. It is important for the Seahawks to find a way to win to make the playoffs.
