No. 20 Cougars look to complete special year against Huskies

[...] Allison understands why this season has become so special for No. 20 Washington State and the opportunity in front of the Cougars on Friday in the Apple Cup against rival Washington to make his senior season truly memorable. After opening the year with arguably the most embarrassing home loss in school history, the Cougars (8-3, 6-2 Pac-12) can keep alive the chance at a 10-win season and potentially keep their rivals home for the holidays by beating the Huskies. Only six times in school history has Washington State reached the 10-win mark, but a victory over the Huskies and in its bowl game would cap an unexpected turnaround after the year began losing to Portland State. The biggest question surrounds Washington State quarterback Luke Falk and his availability less than a week after being taken off the field on a backboard after suffering an apparent head injury against Colorado. Washington State coach Mike Leach has bristled at any questions regarding Falk's status, leaving the possibility of redshirt freshman Peyton Bender making his first college start against the Huskies. Falk has a better experience with the Cougars offense, but Bender has the better arm and wasn't far behind during the offseason QB competition.
