Interesting also that WSU is playing us in Seattle, presumably at the Seahawks stadium. Does this mean we are now a marquee draw within the Pac-12?

They put one game in Seattle every year, and I think they do it more based on the calendar than anything else. They don't put their best game here, nor their worst. It probably won't sell out. And you are correct; it will be at Century Link Field.

I'm stoked given that it means I can see the team next year without a road trip. (Of course I can when they play the Huskies, but this means it will be three years in a row with a game in Seattle.)

WSU was putting Oregon or Oregon State in that Seattle game, but Wazzu alums were really upset because it made it too easy for their "home" game to be dominated by Oregon types.  So I suspect WSU will begin using Stanford and UCB.  That way their Seattle game will have more WSU people in the stands than away game fans.
