Black Friday. Kick off to the "Holiday Season". This year, it was also the kick-off to Apple Cup 2012! A State rivalry that has gone on since... I assume the first game!
It took me until half-time to "find" the game on-line. Thank you AM 710 for live streaming!!! This year's game proved to be quite exciting! Instead of Couging-It, WSU pulled out for a tie at the buzzer. To Coug-It (according to the Urban Dictionary) is to:
1. snatch defeat from the jaws of victory
2. lose when there is no possible way to do so, and to do it in a particularly spectacular manner
Yup. That pretty much summarized most/all Apple Cups of yon...
NOT THIS YEAR!!! Huskies had possession of the ball first during OT. They lost their possession and the Cougs pulled it off! The boys and I have been sporting our WSU paraphernalia all day. Fun way to Kick-Off the Holiday Season!!!
This year's game was a perfect 10.0! (and 10 days to G&P!)
How 'bout them apples?!?
Waaah! And we Huskies can't even blame it on the snow!
ReplyDeleteI did have to explain the "delicate" situation in the family when he asked where Ian got his WSU shirt... "Auntie Leah" - Stefan: "uh... didn't she go to UW?!?" Yup, so did Uncle Dave. We still love them a lot ;)
DeleteIt was one of the only games that has EVER been fun to listen to on the radio - half way around the world!
