Zach Durfee is making his Sugar Bowl debut this season after becoming eligible to play at the University of Washington. The talented wide receiver has been a standout for the Huskies since transferring from junior college in 2018, and he is now ready to take the next step in his football career.
Durfee was a highly-touted recruit coming out of high school, but he chose to go the junior college route in order to gain more experience and develop his skills. After two successful seasons at the junior college level, Durfee transferred to the University of Washington and immediately made an impact. He was a key contributor on offense, catching 56 passes for 836 yards and seven touchdowns in his first season with the Huskies.
The 2019 season saw Durfee take his game to another level. He caught 64 passes for 1,098 yards and 11 touchdowns, earning him All-Pac-12 honors. His performance earned him a spot on the 2020 Sugar Bowl roster, and he is now ready to show the nation what he can do on the big stage.
Durfee is a dynamic playmaker who can make plays in the air and on the ground. His size and speed make him a difficult matchup for opposing defenses, and he has the ability to take over a game with his playmaking ability. He is also a reliable target for quarterback Dylan Morris, who has developed a strong rapport with Durfee over the past two seasons.
Durfee’s Sugar Bowl debut will be one to watch, as he looks to continue his impressive rise in college football. He has already made an impact at the University of Washington, and now it’s time for him to take his talents to the national stage. It will be exciting to see what he can do against top-tier competition, and it could be the start of something special for Durfee.
