Who has the edge in the 111th Apple Cup: UW Huskies or WSU Cougars?

If we are talking about NFL potential, it would seem that UW’s Jacob Eason has a clear edge over WSU’s Anthony Gordon because of his size and great arm strength. But we are talking about this season. Gordon has thrown for 4,920 yards and is poised to become the 16th FBC quarterback to throw for 5,000 yards in a season. He has an outside chance of breaking Texas Tech’s B.J. Symons’ single-season record of 5,333 yards. Gordon occasionally throws ill-advised passes into coverage, and has been intercepted 14 times. Eason has thrown for 2,678 yards and 21 touchdowns, with eight interceptions.
