What's the Apple Cup trophy?

Apple Cup: awarded since 1963 and donated by the Washington Apple Commission, a nod to the state's apple crop; the trophy's nickname became the game's name.

How did the Apple Cup start?

Washington and Washington State first met in 1900 in Seattle, and the game ended in a 5-5 tie. From 1934 the teams played for the Governor's Trophy, a bronze shield, and since 1963 for the Apple Cup. For decades the game closed the regular season around Thanksgiving, with Seattle hosting in odd years and Pullman or Spokane in even years. After the Pac-12 broke up, the 2024 game was the first non-conference Apple Cup in 63 years and moved to September under a five-year deal. The 2008 game between two winless teams, which Washington State won 16-13 in double overtime, got mocked as the "Crapple Cup."
