Huskies Reach Rock Bottom In 40-13 Apple Cup Loss

Washington State fans storming the field after watching the Cougars beat the Washington Huskies 40-13 at Husky Stadium in the Apple Cup will be the lasting image of a shockingly poor season for UW.

In a perfect world, Sam Huard was going to march onto the field for his first career start and lead the Huskies to a dramatic victory over the Cougs; letting his arrival be known. Instead, reality struck.

Washington elected to bring in the Huard era by opting to start him despite his immensely limited experience which is a recipe for disaster for a quarterback.
