On Saturday afternoon in downtown Seattle, the football honeymoon for Jedd Fisch and his University of Washington coaching staff officially came to an end at 4:

Penalties were the story all afternoon for Washington. The Huskies suffered 135 penalty yards on 16 accepted penalties on the day. Yet somehow, Jedd Fisch and Washington found themselves able to take the lead with under two minutes to play in the Apple Cup.

The Washington Huskies lost to the Washington State Cougars 24-19 in the 116th edition of the Apple Cup. For the first time ever the game was played in September and was played at Lumen Field. It was disappointing day all over the field for the Huskies.

The latest chapter of the Apple Cup rivalry will be played in Seattle at Lumen Field, home of the Seattle Seahawks. But with the Huskies now in the Big Ten — Washington State and Oregon State make up what’s left of the Pac-12 for now — the future of the Apple Cup may be in jeopardy. But not for a few years.

Saturday's matchup between the Cougars and Huskies will be the 116th Apple Cup, and it will be played at Lumen Field.

The Washington Huskies are a far cry from the 2023 team that played in the National Championship but penalties are even keeping UW out of football conversations
