Washington football’s 2019 Apple Cup preview

Chris Petersen is 5-0 in the Apple Cup during his time with Washington football. Also, the Cougars are 0-4 on the road this season. And while anything can happen in rivalry games, and the Huskies are an uncharacteristic 3-3 at home, this should give them an edge.

Last Saturday against Oregon State, Cougars quarterback Anthony Gordon went 50/70 for 606 yards through the air with six touchdowns and three interceptions. The young Husky secondary is going to have their work cut out for them, but Jimmy Lake knows this, as the Cougars consistently come into this game as the nation’s leader in passing.
