The Wahsington Huskies and Wahsington State Cougars are playing the Apple Cup live on the Fox Sports 1 college football schedule on Saturday night and the game from Martin Stadium is on FS1 on TV and the Fox Sports Go website streaming online as the Pacific Northwest rivalry game does down in the Pac-12 conference.
The Huskies come into the game at 7-3 on the season and they have been up and down in the Pac-12 tournament and they have a road matchup to end the regular season. The team is 0-5 against the top 25 this season and that has been the main issue for the team and also shows how stacked the Pac-12 was this season. The team is averaging 30 points per game and they come in after a win against Oregon State. The team has lost two of its last three games and they only have won against unranked teams in the Pac-12.
The team lost against Arizona and UCLA before playing against Oregon State and now they finish with the Apple Cup. Washington State comes in after a tough loss to Arizona State and they are scoring 33 points per game this season and they are ranked first overall in passing yards per game. The team is averaging nearly 500 yards per game and while they are only averaging 50 yards on the group, they are in the top 40 in scoring offense this season.
The Cougars lost their last game and before that they won against Oregon State and they scored 39 points in that matchup. The defense has given up some major points in games this season, including against Arizona, Cal and USC. The team has lost five of the last six games of the season and they opened 1-3 before winning against Utah and they also came close to winning over Oregon.
Cyler Miles is leading the Huskies, while Connor Halliday has some great numbers and he comes in after putting up nearly 4000 passing yards this season. The Cougars are going to continue throwing the ball and while they have just three wins this season, the Huskies know they can play with anyone when it comes to throwing the ball and the Apple Cup being on the road is huge as well.
