00:00The 116th all-time meeting between Washington and Washington State.

00:07This game in Seattle, not at Husky Stadium, it's at Lumen Field where the Seattle Seahawks

00:12play.

00:13So technically a neutral site there in the great state of Washington.

00:17Five and a half points spread in favor of UW, but Wazoo is 2-0.

00:22They went out right last week against Texas Tech as a two and a half point home underdog

00:26on the Palouse.

00:27How do you break down this matchup?

00:28The head is still spinning, look at the John Matier statistics.

00:30In the first game he throws for about .350, the second game he runs for nearly .200.

00:34Does Washington State have themself a potential superstar at the quarterback position?

00:37He has one of the five or six best passer ratings early season.

00:41You love this note, gutty.

00:44I mean, this kid's a gamer.

00:45I mean, here's the thing, when I break down this game, right, rivalry game, it means just

00:50as much to Washington State to prove a point, and I'm not sold on Will Rogers, very turnover

00:55prone in big spots.

00:57I've lost a ton of money on him, give me Matier with the points.

01:00Will Rogers has been good in Jed Fish's offense, as you would expect.

01:04He excelled in the air raid under Mike Leach, 2-61 last week for Rogers, four touchdowns

01:11against Eastern Michigan.

01:12They won by three touchdowns, did the Huskies, but they did not cover.
