The PAC 12 dropped its 2016 football schedules last night. UW fans will not be surprised to learn that they will be facing Oregon and Stanford on back-to-back weekends or that the Apple Cup will be on yet another Friday after Thanksgiving ...in Pullman.
Here is the full schedule:
Sat 9/3: Rutgers @ UW
Sat 9/10: Idaho @ UW
Sat 9/17: Portland St @ UW
Sat 9/24: UW @ Arizona
Fri 9/30: Stanford @ UW
Sat 10/8: UW @ Oregon
Sat 10/15: BYE
Sat 10/22: Oregon St @ UW
Sat 10/29: UW @ Utah
Sat 11/5: UW @ Cal
Sat 11/12: USC @ UW
Sat 11/19: Arizona St @ UW
Fri 11/25: UW @ WSU
Some early impressions from the schedule:
- Playing Stanford then Oregon on back-to-back (short) weeks is not ideal.
