Here are some excerpts...

Stumbles against decent-not-great teams and an inability to close out close games was a reminder that Washington is not yet to its intended destination. But the blowout wins were a reminder of where the Huskies could be headed.

In Washington's six wins, the Huskies have managed a standard downs success rate of 55.6 percent. In their six losses, it's 36.9 percent. Southern Miss has a pretty good pass rush in obvious passing situations, and you can get to Browning: Washington's allowing a 10.7 percent sack rate on passing downs, 113th in the country. Get stops on first down, and Southern Miss can stay in the game for 60 minutes. But if the young Husky offense is remaining in comfortable downs and distances, this could turn into the kind of blowout Washington wins tend to become.
