Apple Cup Lives On: UW and WSU to keep playing through 2028 [View all]
This year will not be the final Apple Cup rivalry game after all.
The University of Washington and Washington State University announced Sunday that the two schools have agreed to a five-year contract to keep the in-state rivalry football game going.
The status of the Apple Cup was up in the air with UW leaving for the Big Ten after this year and WSU’s conference future uncertain. But now, the two schools will keep playing through 2028.
In 2024, the game will be at a neutral site, Lumen Field, home of the Seattle Seahawks. That contest will be on Sept. 14, 2024, which will be very different than usual as the two teams have typically squared off during college football’s “Rivalry Week” at the end of November.
