Now, Bone has written a letter to the Daily Evergreen urging students to be passionate when Washington visits Pullman today to play the Cougars. Bone may be fearing a repeat of the post-Apple Cup snowball frenzy last fall. Also, WSU students will be aware that one of the UW players is being investigated for sexual misconduct.
