Washington An Offensive Juggernaut
Led by QB Michael Penix Jr, the favorite in the Heisman Trophy odds, Washington is an offensive powerhouse.

His top two targets have combined to produce more pass reception yardage than the entire Utah team. Between them, Romeo Odunze (989) and Ja’Lynn Polk (888) have collected 1,877 yards. Odunze has caught at least five passes in each of the past 11 games. Suddenly, RB Dillon Johnson must be factored into the equation. He rambled for 256 yards on the ground and four TDs in last week’s win over USC.
The Washington offense is fourth in the NCAA in total offense (509.1 yards per game), scoring offense (41.7 points per game) and TDs (47). As far as passing offense, the Huskies are #1 with 383.1 yards per game through the air. The Huskies has scored 94 points in past two weeks. Three times this season Washington has bettered 50 points. The Huskies accounted for at least 40 points in three other games.
Utah Title Hopes Diminished
A loss to Oregon severely damaged the chances of the Utes capturing a third successive Pac-12 title. Injuries have stunted the Utes, including the absence of QB1 Cameron Rising, two tight ends and their top RB.
