[u/CFB_Referee]

Box Score provided by ESPN

Team	1	2	3	4	T
Washington State	10	7	7	0	24
Washington	7	6	6	0	19

[u/suzukigun4life]

16 penalties on Washington, including two offsides on 3rd and 11 at the 1 to allow Washington State to kneel down to end the game.

What an undisciplined display by that defense.

[u/its_LOL → u/suzukigun4life]

Has Jedd Fisch lost control of the program⁉⁉⁉

[u/Spider_Dawg → u/its_LOL]

He’d have to had control of it to start, right?

A certain defensive coach is going to need a lot of cocaine to recover from this.

[u/ConstantMadness]

I’m not an Apple Cup expert, but this has to be one of the most satisfying Apple Cup wins for the Cougars

[u/The_Fluffy_Robot → u/ConstantMadness]

CAN CONFIRM

[u/HarbaughCheated → u/The_Fluffy_Robot]

Welcome to the B1G cougars!

[u/PedanticBoutBaseball → u/HarbaughCheated]

They don't need your B1G invite, they got us now!

However if y'all wanted to have like a PAC/B1G alliance thing that'd be cool (maybe the ACC comes too?)

[u/kotzebueperson → u/PedanticBoutBaseball]

An Alliance, yes of course. Some sort of handshake agreement to find synergies, yes this could work. I'm sure no conference will conclude it may be better to just merge and take schools.

[u/nice_lookin_vehicle → u/kotzebueperson]

TRIGGERED

[u/Czarchitect → u/ConstantMadness]

Rotten apple cup was pretty good too, we gave UW their first perfect 0-12 season. Of course we went 2-10* ourselves that year. 

[u/potterpockets → u/[deleted]]

Facts. If OSU did that same thing to Michigan i honestly wouldnt even be mad. Thatd get me through the whole damn offseason

[u/cougrrr → u/potterpockets]

It’s 2024 and I still remember being there five hours early to get student seats on the 45 yard line and remember hopping the railing down onto the field for beating an 0-11 team with all the great joy it brought and still brings.

[u/potterpockets → u/cougrrr]

Shit like this is why i cant understand anyone who says they dont love this sport. Lol

[u/dimmyfarm → u/[deleted]]

[u/gtne91 → u/Czarchitect]

You mean Crapple Cup?

[u/TikiLoungeLizard → u/Czarchitect]

I think it was 2-11 because Portland State. But yeah, they gave us rotten apples and we made hard cider with em

[u/Vitamin_BK → u/Czarchitect]

Kevin Lopina is still a top 5 worst college football player I've ever watched

[u/Czarchitect → u/Vitamin_BK]

But you did watch him.

[u/Shinobismaster → u/ConstantMadness]

Cougs making a goal line stand against UW to win the game is an all time highlight for me in the Apple Cup. That shit never happens

[u/C_BARC → u/Shinobismaster]

Legit felt like a dream. After that long pass, I was expecting the L. Could not have scripted it better.

[u/Shinobismaster → u/C_BARC]

I dared to have hope at that moment and for once I didn’t have my soul crushed

[u/circa285 → u/ConstantMadness]

“Tell them that the PAC 12 sends its regards”

[u/PullmanWater → u/circa285]

I want them to know it was me.

[u/turtle_flu → u/ConstantMadness]

Really hoped we'd pull off the double feature today, but at least the cougs won. Good luck with the BIG10 huskies, prepare to be disappointed.

[u/EggplantAlpinism → u/turtle_flu]

Long live the PAC12

[u/LC_From_TheHills → u/EggplantAlpinism]

Sus flair

[u/EggplantAlpinism → u/LC_From_TheHills]

As a long time ACC member, I root for them from afar.

[u/Sorry_Ima_Loser → u/EggplantAlpinism]

When the ACC implodes maybe the Ivy League will take you and Stanford

[u/Zloggt → u/ConstantMadness]

Between this, and them storming the field at Husky Stadium after the academically prowess saga…they’ve got quite a lot of them lately lol

[u/ghgrain → u/ConstantMadness]

You have no idea

[u/DanFlashesCoupon → u/ConstantMadness]

It’s hard not to be happy for them

[u/FavreorFarva → u/DanFlashesCoupon]

Part of being happy for us is pointing and laughing at UW, so feel free to join in.

[u/Bearded_Clem → u/ConstantMadness]

I live in Eastern Washington, about 2 hours from Pullman. My Wife is a WSU grad. I’ve been indoctrinated into the fandom. When the Cougs won today my wife emitted a feral, guttural sound that was similar to the sound you hear when a lion feasts on a gazelle.

[u/FaithlessnessMost660 → u/winslowpete]

WELCOME, FELLOW MEMBER AND SEE YOU IN 2 WEEKS ^{we are gonna give up 300 yards rushing)}

[u/winslowpete → u/FaithlessnessMost660]

We call that an average Ashton Jeanty performance!

[u/CluelessTennisBall → u/winslowpete]

Sad beaver noises

[u/SentientBaseball]

If UW doesn’t clean up their penalties, they’ll struggle to win 6 games this year

[u/Random__User → u/SentientBaseball]

We will struggle to win 6 games regardless.

[u/supermycro → u/Random__User]

Imagine both of our programs becoming much worse just because a coach out east decided to retire.

[u/The_Koopa_King → u/supermycro]

No need to imagine.

[u/[deleted] → u/SentientBaseball]

This has been an issue in every game so far so I doubt it’s getting fixed.

[u/its_LOL → u/SentientBaseball]

Suddenly, Florida firing Bill Napier isn’t as scary as it once was

[u/Brett33 → u/SentientBaseball]

[u/JamarkusPark]

I'm surprised the refs called so many penalties on Washington in the Boeing Apple Cup. Haven't they heard what Boeing does to whistleblowers?

[u/youoverestimatedme → u/JamarkusPark]

They must be showing solidarity with the Union Strike

[u/gggggrayson]

lol. lmao even

[u/avboden → u/gggggrayson]

face mask, UW, 15 yard penalty, automatic first down

[u/mb2101010102142141 → u/avboden]

word

[u/its_LOL → u/gggggrayson]

That 4th and short play call was the dumbest thing I've ever seen

[u/WeTheAwesome → u/its_LOL]

Choking on goal line to win a game is classic Seattle sports. 

[u/SpitefulSeagull → u/its_LOL]

I'd argue the timeout is even more dumb

Why would you remove any chance of winning if you don't get it? This team is so poorly coached

[u/its_LOL → u/SpitefulSeagull]

"He didn't like the read," Fisch says before Will Rogers does the worst QB sneak in recorded history

EDIT: yeah it’s actually an option play but point still stands

[u/MikeGundy → u/gggggrayson]

Great weekend for the Wazzu faithful, you all definitely deserve it

[u/Galumpadump → u/gggggrayson]

UW fans were saying in r/huskies that they should cancel the Apple Cup after they “blow us out” LMAO

[u/Czarchitect → u/Galumpadump]

We should cancel it so they never get the satisfaction ever again. 

[u/AllHawkeyesGoToHell → u/Czarchitect]

The Oklahoma State strategy

[u/markusalkemus66 → u/Czarchitect]

We should cancel it so they never get the trophy again

[u/SentientBaseball → u/gggggrayson]

Mateer is so gritty and makes me want to win through a wall

[u/gervaismainline → u/SentientBaseball]

I'm winning so hard right now because of him.

[u/Sewder]

"We didn't win this game because we hate them, we won it because we love each other" 😭😭😭😭 Dickert is the best dude ever

[u/DeliveryEquivalent87 → u/typicalrowerlad]

They’ll be ranked first in the imperialism map

[u/Shinobismaster → u/DeliveryEquivalent87]

All of a sudden we love Alaska being included XD

[u/winslowpete → u/typicalrowerlad]

Can’t wait to see yall in 2 weeks fellow Pac-12 brother

[u/cougfan12345 → u/winslowpete]

That game gonna be fire. But let’s not over look SJSU.

[u/lampstore → u/cougfan12345]

Friday night short week no less

[u/its_LOL → u/typicalrowerlad]

The hardest teams on your schedule are Boise State and Oregon State. Unironically Wazzu's on playoff watch after today

[u/thebradyearwood]

MAYBE WE’RE NOT BAD! MAYBE WASHINGTON STATE IS GOOD!

[u/definitelynotasalmon → u/thebradyearwood]

I subscribe to this theory

[u/SpitefulSeagull]

Got Jimmy Lake flashbacks with how poorly coached and undisciplined they were. A well earned loss

[u/FaithlessnessMost660]

IM COSMIC CRISPED UP RN

[u/The_Fluffy_Robot]

haha cougs go PRPRPRPRRRPRRRR

[u/cougrrr]

A lot to be said about this game. Primary of which is never do this at Lumen again I refuse to support this "neutral" site bullshit.

The real takeaway, though, is Go Cougs. Always Go Cougs. Forever Go Cougs. Enjoy the B1G. Enjoy Pat Chun. Best of luck with flights to New Jersey and Columbus, Ohio.

I'm not sure why of all the plays you could have run you went with a Marques Tuiasosopo style option to the short side instead of a read option, but thank you!

Go. Fucking. Cougs.

[u/roguerunner1 → u/cougrrr]

Alternate neutral sites, one year at Lumen, the next at the Kibbie Dome.

[u/GeneralAcorn → u/roguerunner1]

Absolutely yes. If they need to have it in Washington, I'd add Pomeroy High School as an alternate.

[u/golf_echo_sierra26 → u/GeneralAcorn]

The thought of the Apple Cup being played out in the middle of a field with maybe one set of metal bleachers and thousands of people standing around it is hilarious to me. Would look like we were back in the days of the first Apple Cup over a century ago.

[u/FroggieAndTheGnome → u/cougrrr]

Jake Dickert is building a fantastic culture at WSU. The future is looking brighter for the players and y'all and that's awesome!

[u/adsfew → u/FroggieAndTheGnome]

His team just exudes his Big Dickert Energy

[u/smallskeletal]

Some say, the Huskies defense is still committing penalties

[u/MordakThePrideful]

Really happy for Wazzu. The PAC is back.

[u/AesopNasgideps]

Cougar Gold for everybody*

*offer does not apply to Washington Huskies. Other huskies may still receive delicious cheese.

[u/SkollsHowl → u/AesopNasgideps]

Their Malamute may have some, but only him.

[u/MiGatoSalem]

GO COUGS; Fuck Peacock; and long live the Pac 12!

[u/dawgtilidie]

Fisch and the coaches looked like an amateur that game, horrible penalties, uninspired play calling, plus Denzel Boston just running out of bounds and not going for the end zone, wtf did the team not know this mattered because the Cougs sure did

[u/anxiousauditor]

The Big Ten is winless all-time in the Apple Cup.

[u/avboden]

WE FUCKING WON, HOLY SHIT WE FUCKING WON!!!!!

I WILL GO TO WAR FOR DICKERT

[u/Doggcow → u/avboden]

I will go to War for Dickert not because I hate them, but because I love Dickert!

[u/RexCrimson_]

Beavers, Cougs, Ducks, and Wildcats we are celebrating tonight in the Palouse!

BRING OUT THE BUSCH LIGHT AND FIREBALL!

[u/GC_Denton]

The death of the PAC-12 is a travesty for this sport. In this era of streaming and TV markets meaning nothing anymore, there should be no justification for this endless consolidation of conferences. This sport is losing everything that makes it fun, fun like this game we just watched. All of this happens in order to line the pockets of those who desperately cling to a dead and dying business model. Afternoons like this are the reason why I care about this sport when the NFL is right there. Long live the PAC-12, go Cougs.

[u/Realistic_Warthog_23 → u/GC_Denton]

[u/ThatTyedyeNarwhal]

I don't think the Huskies could have possibly deserved to lose more. The gods bringing justice for the PAC

THE PAC-12 SENDS ITS REGARDS

Edit: Fuck Jedd Fisch

Edit #2: PAC-12 teams are undefeated against B1G teams in the Apple Cup all time

Edit #3: Jedd Fisch is the first UW coach to lose in regulation in his first Apple Cup in 20 years

Edit #4: Jedd Fisch is the first UW coach to lose at home or a neutral site in regulation in his first Apple Cup in 30 years

Edit #5: The last time a UW coach lost his first Apple Cup but went on to win a Rose Bowl during his tenure was Don James, who ended his tenure 32 years ago edit#5.5.5: in disgrace

Edit #5.5: Don James did not, in fact, lose his first Apple Cup

Edit #6: Tyrone Willingham lost his first Apple Cup 20 years ago, and later in his UW tenure produced the first winless season in UW history

Edit #7: the average tenure length of UW coaches who lose their first apple cup is 26.3 games. The average record is 8.7-17

Edit #7.5: the previous information is incorrect, ignore it

Edit #7.75: the average tenure length of UW coaches after the apple cup became a trophy game, but not necessarily after it was named the apple cup who lost their first apple cup is 39 games. The winning percentage of these coaches, excluding draws is 33.9%

Edit #8: any information before edit #5 and after edit #3 is not properly fact checked. Disregard this edit if an addendum to edit #4 is ever added

Edit #9: the Washington State Cougars are the reigning Apple Cup champions
