PULLMAN, WA - It was rivalry weekend, among those rivalries was the battle for the Apple Cup and supremacy in the state of Washington. The Cougars hosting this year's installment. Right out of the gates, Washington came firing, within a minute the Huskies already put 7 on the board. No surprise from a team who has only lost one game this year and outright leaders in the Pac-10.
However, WSU came looking for an upset, and were able to make key stops when it was necessary. Sacking Jake Locker midway through the third when WSU was down by only a field goal was crucial. Earlier, Jeff Tuel found Solomon, who had two defenders whiffing and took it 69 yards to the house to narrow the lead to just a field goal.
Things looked promising for WSU until right at the end of the third, Washington marched down the field, culminating in a 7 yard TD run to go ahead 20-10. Once again, the WSU offense failed to get much going and Jeff Tuel finished with just 9 completions on the day. In the end, Washington walked away with a 23-10 victory and the Apple Cup, along with the Pac-10 conference championship.
Washington State finishes 4-7, 3-5 in conference play. They will not have a chance to make a bowl game..their season ends here.
*Statistical note: Under "Total Yards" I usually just put the Total Offensive Yards, instead of the actual Total Yards.
