“Count on the Pac-12's top two defenses to live up to the billing on a cold, wet night at Husky Stadium. The Huskies' defense hasn't allowed 300 yards through the air in almost two years, and Luke Falk has yet to challenge the UW secondary.”

“Sure, a 10-win season could motivate UW, but WSU has more to play for in this one. The 20-man senior class has never beaten the Huskies, and they know that a win on Saturday would buy them passage to the Pac-12 championship game against USC. That will drive them. Also, the Cougars’ defense is much-improved this year, and with the pass-rushing tandem of Hercules Mata’afa and Frankie Luvu on the field, WSU could cause problems for Jake Browning and his decimated receiving corps.
