The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds in West Lafayette, Ind. and Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund in Seattle - got together after Washington's 38-26 win over the Purdue Boilermakers and they had plenty to talk about.
Despite three first-half turnovers and five overall, the Huskies still led 24-17 through efficient offense led by quarterback Elijah Brown and timely defense that turned potential touchdowns into field goals.
They kept up the pressure on defense, forcing a couple of fourth-quarter courtesy of picks from Jeron Jones and Rylon Dillard-Allen to keep the Boilermakers at bay. It's the first time since 2003 that Washington was able to fade five turnovers in a win. Ryan Walters wanted his team to come out and play with an edge, and they did just that.
A major talking point was the play of Brown, who finished with over 300 yards and three passing touchdowns to go with three picks. Were the interceptions his fault? The fault of the receivers? Or a combination of the two?
And the other major talking point of the night was Washington's run game, where they were able to generate 186 yards on 34 carries. What went right? What changed from last week where they could only muster minus-3 yards at home against Iowa?
