The annual Apple Cup is one of the most anticipated events of the year for college football fans. Every year, the Washington Huskies and the Washington State Cougars face off in a rivalry game that dates back to 1900. Unfortunately, a recent report suggests that the 2020 Apple Cup could be cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
The report states that the Pac-12 conference, which both teams are a part of, is considering cancelling the game due to the health and safety concerns associated with the virus. This would be a huge blow to college football fans, as the Apple Cup is one of the most popular games in the conference.
If the game is cancelled, it would be a huge disappointment for both teams. The Huskies and Cougars have been playing each other since 1900, and the rivalry has become an important part of both teams’ identities. The game also has a long history of being one of the most exciting games in college football, with fans from both sides coming together to cheer on their teams.
It’s understandable why the Pac-12 is considering cancelling the game, as the safety of players and fans is of utmost importance. However, it would be a shame if this year’s game was cancelled, as it would be a huge loss for college football fans.
Here’s hoping that the Pac-12 finds a way to make the game happen this year. With proper safety protocols in place, there’s no reason why the game can’t go ahead as planned. It would be a huge disappointment if the Apple Cup was cancelled, so here’s hoping that it continues for years to come.
