Huskies Rout Cougars in Dominant Boeing Apple Cup Showdown

The Boeing Apple Cup rivalry between Washington and Washington State has been dominated by the Huskies in recent years. In their last meeting, the Huskies secured a comfortable 59-24 victory over the Cougars, with sophomore quarterback Demond Williams leading the charge. He completed 16 of 19 passes for 298 yards and four touchdowns, while also rushing for a game-high 88 yards and another score.

Williams' performance was highlighted by his ability to keep plays alive and find his receivers and backs down the field for big gains. The defense struggled in the first half, allowing Washington State to post 304 yards of offense, but managed to make key plays when it mattered most. Alex McLaughlin intercepted two passes, including one at the Washington State 47-yard line, which set up a touchdown.

The Huskies' victory marked their 13th win in the last 15 meetings between the two teams. Despite the lopsided score, Washington State refused to quit, and the game remained close until the fourth quarter. The Cougars' quarterback Zevi Eckhaus completed 25 of 36 passes for 277 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions.
