The Apple Cup trophy, symbolizing the annual college football rivalry game between Washington State University (WSU) Cougars and the University of Washington (UW) Huskies, is set to be retired. The decision was made by the Washington State Athletic Department due to concerns regarding the safety of transporting the trophy between Pullman and Seattle. The Apple Cup game, which was originally scheduled for November 27, has been canceled and will not be rescheduled this season. The teams will instead be recognized based on their records and performances in the Pac-12 Conference.
