SEATTLE – Washington will open the 2025 season with two 8 p.m. kickoffs, the Big Ten announced Thursday.

UW’s season opener against Colorado State on Aug. 30 and its game against UC Davis on Sept. 6 will both kick off at 8 p.m. at Husky Stadium. Both games will be broadcast on the Big Ten Network.

Washington and Washington State will face off in the Apple Cup at 4:30 p.m. Sept. 20 when UW travels to Martin Stadium in Pullman, as previously announced. The game will air on CBS.

Additionally, Washington’s game against Rutgers was flexed to Oct. 10 at 6 p.m., and will be broadcast on FS1. It will mark the second consecutive season the Huskies and Scarlet Knights will meet on a Friday after the teams played a Friday night game in New Jersey in 2024.
