The 2025 Apple Cup between Washington and Washington State will be played at Gesa Field in Pullman, Wash., on Sept. 20, 2025, it was announced Monday.
Washington State won the first of the five-game series in the lone neutral-site contest on the docket, a 24-19 result played at Lumen Field in Seattle earlier this year. The series now shifts to Pullman next year and in 2027, with games at Husky Stadium in 2026 and 2028.
Washington has won 76 of the 116 Apple Cup matchups, with the Cougars snapping a two-game losing string with the win earlier this year.
The 117th Apple Cup will take place Sept. 20th, 2025 at GESA Field๐๐

Football Schedules
I pray that Apple Cup Washington-Washington State will keep playing in CFB.
It’s good to see the Apple Rivalry switch to Pullman WA.
This =s 6 Games for 2025.
6 more Oktober – November Foes needed to fill the last year before the Remake of the ‘Pacific Athletic Conference’.
Since the PAC2 raided, diluted & compromised TheMW.com in the short term, I have Zero idea who the other 6 scheduled Programs might be.
WSU and OR St. could ask their new conference mates (BSU, CSU, USU, SDSU, and Fresno) for some help. For instance, Fresno is slated to play @KU in 2025. But that could be changed to Fresno@WSU and WSU@KU.
Also, WSU and OR St. could play each other twice (or more) in 2025.
It would be nice if Oregon and Washington could play their natural rivals on Thanksgiving Weekend. The other 16 teams in the BIG could play their natural rivals. If the SEC can have four non-conference season-ending rivalries, the BIG can have one.
Dittos Gerry,
Except, IMO, the Huskies would need to advance through the 12 Team BCS Properties, LLC playoff & win the championship 2 – 3 Times & the same for the Ducks, to wear the pants in the B18g10 & make such scheduling happen.
I don’t whether either =s interested in pushing the envelope for that option.
My Blue Cougars = rivalry chances were suspended for 13 years vs the Utes when they were invited to the PAC.
We had to play them when the PAC & they wanted to =ing mostly September games & 4 years where the Utes elected to not play us during the regular season.
I feel with U.
Big Ten really likes conference games in October & especially in November where games are very meaningful.
