This sucks for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that I wanted to see if WSU could beat the Huskies. Bummer.
P.S. It's kind of funny how the Ducks keep missing these outbreaks and no games have been cancelled yet. This and the scheduling make me start to believe the conspiracy theories about the conference trying to prop up that USC/ UO championship game.

I heard they wanted to call it the Cannabis Cup, but it was shot down by the Big Oil lobby.Duck07 wrote:Such an offensive name to all of the other prosperous fruits and agricultural products in washington.

As far as Big Oil goes, that was just gas, naturally!

Re: Apple Cup Canceled
Knock on wood. I would expect that one of the games gets ppd/canceled/rescheduled with another team having a game scratched.Phalanx wrote: P.S.

Sounds like Washington might be gearing up to play Utah instead.

Re: Apple Cup Canceled
From the details, it sounds like BYU knew from the get-go that the P12 was going to want to keep it in-conference with Utah possibly being cancelled and BYU just wanted the game to get locked-in without the P12 doing precisely what they thought they would.Phalanx wrote:Sounds like Washington might be gearing up to play Utah instead.
