Washington State Football 2017: 3 Bold predictions vs Washington in the Apple Cup
Washington State football is one win away from their first appearance in the Pac-12 Championship game in school history. Can the Cougars get it done?
Washington State 9-2 (6-2 Pac-12) finishes off their regular season schedule with their biggest game of the year – the Apple Cup against Washington. A win against the Huskies would propel the Cougars into their first Pac-12 Championship game appearance in school history. The Cougars have at least a trip to a New Year’s Six bowl on the line.
Washington 9-2 (6-2) cannot win the Pac-12. Even with a win over the Cougars on Saturday they would lose the tiebreaker process to Stanford, sending the Cardinal to the Pac-12 Championship game in their place. Nevertheless, the Huskies will be ready to spoil the season of their rivals.
