The Huskies proved their defense still ranks among the best in the Pac-12 with an exceptional showing at Utah. Washington allowed a lengthy drive for a touchdown late in the first quarter, then pitched a shutout over the final three. Offensive efficiency remains a concern: The Huskies had almost as many first downs (18) as points (21) in Salt Lake City. Myles Gaskin should help remedy those struggles moving forward. The senior running back’s 47th career rushing touchdown moved him into eighth place all-time in the Pac-12.
