The University of Washington Huskies remain undefeated despite a poor performance against Arizona State University. The Huskies, who are currently ranked No. 8 in the nation, were expected to dominate the Sun Devils, but instead came away with a narrow victory.
The game was a back-and-forth affair, with both teams trading leads throughout the contest. ASU jumped out to an early lead, but the Huskies were able to rally and take a slim lead into halftime. In the second half, the Sun Devils fought back and regained the lead, but the Huskies were able to make some key plays down the stretch and secure the win.
Despite the close score, it was clear that UW was not at its best. The Huskies struggled to move the ball on offense and their defense was unable to contain ASU’s offense. UW’s quarterback, Jake Browning, threw for just 162 yards and one touchdown, while the Huskies’ running game was held to just 88 yards.
Despite the poor performance, the Huskies remain undefeated and are still in contention for a spot in the College Football Playoff. UW has a tough schedule ahead of them, with games against Oregon, Stanford and Washington State still to come. If they can continue to win, they will have a good chance of making the playoff.
The Huskies have shown that they can win even when they don’t play their best. It is a testament to their resilience and determination that they were able to come away with a win despite their poor performance against ASU. If they can continue to play with the same level of determination, they should be able to make a deep run in the playoffs.
