tenth game of the season beating
Utah 35-28.
It was a wild game. The Huskies
tried to shoot their foot several
times. Another game they may
or should have lost.
The first half ended Utah leading
28-24. Rome Odunze had his
second touchdown of the day in
the second half. They had a field
goal and a safety all in the third
quarter.
The safety happened after the Huskies
made an interception then the ball
after 76 yard run back was dropped on
the one yard line. Two Huskies besides
the interceptor celebrated in the end
zone while a Utah player landed on the
ball. The Huskies were fortunate to
tackle in the end zone for the safety.
The Huskies looked like they were
going to clinch the game however
Michael Penix Jr. was sacked for
a loss then with 1:38 remaining their
field goal was blocked. The Huskies
playing fine defense were able to
stop Utah going anywhere. On 4th
down safety Dominique Hampton
intercepted to end it with less than
a minute to go.
Utah had 306 total yards in the
first half while only having 76 yards
in the second half. Utah had the
ball less than nine minutes. The
game was wild and bazaar all the
way through.
As much as the Huskies have
played wild games beginning with
the win over Oregon the Cougars
are having trouble winning a game.
The Cougars opened the season
with four straight wins including
beating the Huskies next opponent
the Oregon State Beavers. The Cougars
can't win a game right now.
The Cougars lost to California Golden
Bears Saturday 42-39. The Cougars
were behind the whole game. They
scored a touchdown with 5:23 remain
in the game but couldn't even kick a
field goal to tie.
The Cougars were behind 28-24 at the
end of the third quarter. The same score
the Huskies were behind at half time
in their game. California scored two
touchdowns in the 4th quarter before
the Cougars did the same.
It looked like the Cougars would be in
a bowl game however now it doesn't
look like it. Next week the Cougars
play Colorado. Another team who got
off to a good start. Now these are the
two worst teams in the conference.
We don't know the future of the Cougars.
Along with Oregon State they may play
a schedule next year as independents.
Most of the games probably be against
teams from.the Mountain West. In
fact these teams could merge together
in the next two years. The Cougars and
Beavers will likely play each other.
It will be interesting since there likely
be a mass exit of Cougar players
through the transfer portal. The coaching
staff who knows as well. There is a law
suit against the other members of the
Pac-12 conference. That will likely be
settled by money. Anyway best of
luck to the Cougars and Beavers.
