afternoon at home against Utah State
however wasn't as expected.
The Huskies won the scoreboard and
on defense but the offense had a lot
of mix reviews.
Final Washington 16 Utah State 14
The Huskies didn't even score amount of
points as they were favored again. This
was much like the Apple Cup last Sunday.
The main difference Utah State almost won.
Neither team scored in the first quarter
though the Huskies offense had the chance
In the second quarter the Huskies scored
first with a field goal. It didn't take USU
verty long to take the only lead of the game
scoring a touchdown in less than 30 seconds.
What the Huskies defense didn't do well.
The Huskies took less than five minutes
to score their only touchdown of the game
to take a 10-7 lead into the second half.
Both teams didn't score in the 3rd quarter
either. The Huskies kicked a field goal early
on in the 4th quarter. At 6:28 they kicked
another field goal giving them where Utah
State would have to score twice to win.
Utah State made a touchdown at 1:50 left
in the game. Had they kicked a field goal
instead with more time left on the clock
they may have upset the Huskies.
The Huskies weren't able to run out the
clock so under a minute Utah State got the
ball back. The trouble was they had no more
time outs. They got the ball around the 40
yard line in Huskies side of the field but
kicking and making a field goal so they
threw a hail Mary however the Huskies
intercepted the pass for the win.
Head coach Jedd Fisch said when the game
ended that they are 2-0 but dirty. They will
have to go back to the drawing board beginning
with him and trickles down. Next Saturday
the Huskies are again home against Eastern Washington. They usually have a good team.
The Huskies will be favored they will have to
play better to win.
At least the Huskies are not their Big Ten
rival Oregon who were upset Saturday
39-31 by Oklahoma State. Might be the
biggest upset of the season. Oregon still
can win the national championship however
they may have to win all their remaining games.
The Washington State Cougars as expected
lost by a large margin to Kansas State 34-7.
This game started about three hours before
the Huskies game.
The Cougars offense struggled once again.
They had 166 total yards with 65 in the air.
The Cougars only score and touchdown
ended the first half with a interception.
The Cougars quarterback Caden Pinnick
completed only 9 of 20 passes for 65 yards.
He didn't throw any interceptions. He ran
the ball 13 times which was the most on
the team but tied for second with 29 yards.
Next Saturday afternoon the Cougars
will have a home game against Duquesne.
We will have a preview during the week.
We will see whether Pinnick will start
next week depending on his leash.
Go Cougs!
