It’s the latest edition of the Apple Cup as a pair of Pac-12 opponents from the Pacific Northwest clash on the gridiron on the Palouse. The #17 Washington Huskies are on the road as they make the in-state trip to face the Washington State Cougars Saturday night. Washington rolled over Colorado 54-7 at home last Saturday night in their previous game, covering the 30.5-point spread in the process. Washington State dropped Arizona 31-20 on the road in their most recent game last Saturday, covering the line as a 3.5-point favorite.

Washington had no problem dismantling a bad Colorado team as they reeled off a fifth straight win after back-to-back losses back in October. The Huskies improved to 9-2 overall and 6-2 in the Pac-12 for first-year coach Kaleb DeBoer with the win. Against Colorado, Washington led 14-0 after one quarter and 21-0 with under two minutes to play in the half before breaking the game wide open with 16 points in the final 92 seconds of the half. That put the Huskies up 37-0 at the half: the margin reached 47-0 late in the third quarter before Colorado got on the board. The Buffaloes never got closer than 40 as the Huskies romped to the win. Washington racked up a 575-202 edge in total offense, piled up a 29-10 advantage in first downs, controlled the clock by a 32:47 to 27:13 margin and forced a pair of turnovers while committing one. The Huskies also forced a safety in the victory.
