    Washington Huskies vs. Washington State Cougars: Will The Apple Cup Runneth Over? Author : Robert D. Cobb Despite living in the heart of Big 10 country, I have always been drawn to the Apple Cup rivalry game between PAC-12 in-state rivals Washington and Washington State. U-Dub vs Wazzu. Big-city Starbucks-drinking Seattle vs. out-of-the-way country bumpkin Pullman. The Apple Cup is more than just dogs vs. cats, as in Huskies vs. Cougars, but perhaps one of the most underrated rivalry games in the country. If you make not have heard of it before, you will become very familiar with it by the end of the afternoon, as this is THE Apple Cup rivalry game to end all. In terms of West Coast rivalry games, the Apple Cup lacks the glitz and glamour of USC vs. Notre Dame and UCLA, the elitist and liberal academia battle of intellectualism as Cal and Stanford, the pure and open hatred that is the “Civil War” in neighboring Oregon between Oregon and Oregon State, or the bitter and nasty grudge match in the Southwest known as the Territorial Cup between Arizona and Arizona State. In a series that started back in 1900 with a 5-5 tie, and that the Huskies have dominated in holding a 70-32-8 lead, including last season’s 45-10 rout in Seattle, can the Cougars return the favor this year in Pullman? With a trip to the Pac-12 title game on the line and in-state bragging rights from Walla Walla to Spokane on the line, sixth-ranked Washington rolls into Pullman on the heels of a 44-18 romp of Arizona State.

  • SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project Area Encompasses One of the Most Diverse and Complex Human and Natural Landscapes in the Puget Sound Region
    Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment The SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project area encompasses one of the most diverse and complex human and natural landscapes in the Puget Sound region. It includes areas in Seattle from I-5 to the Lake Washington shore, the waters of Lake Washington, and a portion of the Eastside communities and neighborhoods from the eastern shoreline of the lake to Evergreen Point Road. It also includes densely developed urban and suburban areas and some of the most critical natural areas and sensitive ecosystems that remain in the urban growth area. The project area includes the following: ▪ Seattle neighborhoods—Eastlake, Portage Bay/Roanoke, North Capitol Hill, Montlake, University District, Laurelhurst, and Madison Park ▪ The Lake Washington ecosystem and the bays, streams, and wetlands that are associated with it ▪ The Eastside community of Medina ▪ Usual and accustomed fishing areas of the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, who have historically used the area’s fisheries resources and has treaty rights for their protection and use This chapter describes what the project area is like today, setting the stage for the project’s effects described in Chapters 5 and 6. 4.1 Transportation The configuration of SR 520 today, with its inadequate shoulders and gaps in HOV lanes, makes the corridor especially prone to traffic congestion. And, as commuters on SR 520 know, the corridor is overloaded with traffic on a regular basis. Population and employment continue to grow both on the Eastside and in Seattle, resulting in new travel patterns and a steady rise in the number of vehicles crossing the Evergreen Point Bridge.
