Washington’s Hard-Fought Win Exposes Offensive Struggles | Washington Huskies Football News

Washington clawed to a 16-14 win over Utah State in a heart-pounding thriller, sealed by Rahshawn Clark’s game-ending Hail Mary interception. The offense stumbled through shaky execution—dropped passes and a lethargic run game (30 carries for under 2 yards per carry) hampered their ability to move the ball. The offensive line failed to create space, forcing Washington to rely on inconsistent drives. On defense, safety Alex McLaughlin shined with nine tackles, two sacks, and two TFLs—but a costly unsportsmanlike penalty gave Utah State a short field and a late touchdown that nearly stole the win. Still, bright spots emerged: freshman Ansu Sanoe scored his first college TD, and Jordan Clay made key catches to ignite drives. It was a gritty victory, but one that exposed serious offensive vulnerabilities. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
