UPSET WATCH

The Huskies have won five straight over the Cougars heading into the 114th edition of the Apple Cup ( Washington leads 74-33-6 ). Washington still has an outside shot at making the Pac-12 title game, but needs a combination of results to secure a spot. Coach Kalen DeBoer has guided the Huskies to nine wins this season, which is more than any first-year coach in program history. His reward was a recent contract extension through the 2028 season. Washington State is chasing its first eight-win season since 2018. The Huskies are a 1 1/2-point favorite.
