Penix, Odunze carry UW, beat Utah 35-28

The Washington Huskies defeat the Utah Utes 35-28 in a tale of two halves. The defense had one of the worst first halves in the history of college football (hyperbole but barely) and shut out Bryson Barnes, Kyle Whittingham, and the Utes in the second half (no thanks to one of the worst plays in Husky history by Tuputala). Michael Penix had another Heisman worthy game with 300+ yards and 2 TDs in rain and wind on a quintessential Seattle November afternoon. Elijah Jackson struggled with tackling, Jabbar Muhammad was mostly absent, but the other 2 defensive backs in Dominique Hampton and Vincent Nunley stepped up and made important plays in important moments. Ulofoshio and Carson Bruener had adequate games, ZTF and Bralen Trice applied some pressure but couldn't get to the QB. Rome Odunze and Dillon Johnson led the offensive playmakers, while Polk, Westover, Germie Bernard make some big plays. Devin Culp had an off night but that play he made against the USC Trojans gives him some leeway. Kalen DeBoer got his 100th career win in college football and the Huskies move to 10-0 and have a huge test next week against the Oregon State Beavers. #Penix #Heisman #UW #CollegeFootball #Utes #Utah #Washington #PAC12
