The Washington Huskies go to Pullman Washington to take on the Washington State Cougars in the Apple Cup tonight(Friday). The Cougars are ranked #7 in the country so this means a lot to them.
The Huskies are not only want to knock them off it is the last Apple Cup for seniors including quarterback Jake Browning and running back Myles Gaskin. Along with Coach Chris Peterson they help turn around a football program that had gone the wrong direction. They put the Huskies back in the national scene as well. Of course the Cougars are in the national scene as well.
The winner of this game will go to the Pac-12 Championship to face Utah the southern division winner. For the Huskies winning both games means they will probably play in the Rose Bowl while the Cougars could end up in the National Championship series depending how the other teams above them do.
So a lot is on the line for both the Huskies and the Cougars. I feel the Huskies the favorite though the Cougars are favored to win. Browning and Gaskin want to go out on top along with the fact they have an outstanding core of defensive backs. On the other hand this could be the greatest game in this series and all-time for the Cougars to win this game. Whatever the outcome is it will be fantastic for sure. Let the best team win. Yeah!
