Washington vs Washington State Prediction & Pick

Washington is averaging 40 points per game this season while Washington State is scoring 27 points per game. However, for the second straight season last year's interium coach and now full time head coach Jake Dickert has led a turnaround of the Cougars defense. Washington State leads the Pac 12 in scoring defense allowing just 20 PPG with both teams defenses allowing approx. 385 YPG.

Concerns for the Cougars is how they will slow Huskies QB Michael Penix and Washington's nation-leading passing attack after allowing Arizona QB Jayden de Laura to pass for 357 yards last week. The weather will help (see below), and note that Washington State's pass defense is top 3 in the Pac 12 and pass efficiency. Penix leads the nation in passing yards with 3,869, but a 28-21 Huskies road win at Cal is the blueprint and Washington State can win the Apple Cup for a second straight season.

Final Score Prediction: Washington State: 27 | Washington: 26

Washington State broke through in last year's Apple Cup rivalry with a 40-13 road win to snap Washington's seven-game winning streak in the series. Rain and snow showers Friday night in Pullman combined with freezing temps Saturday night and winds up to 20 MPH make the under the way to go in this intense rivalry game and a opinion on the home underdog as well.
