Football Dots
- Adam Jude at the Seattle Times profiles Levi Onwuzurike, who got his first start last Saturday and figures to play an important role for the rest of the season.
- Lauren Kirschman at the Tacoma News Tribune talks to Tevis Bartlett who wants to give back by pursuing a career in education.
- The Daily does their version of Film Study by going in depth on Jake Browning’s surprising athletic rushing touchdown from last Saturday.
- The Huskies are one of 9 teams that ESPN says are still alive in the hunt to win a national title.
- ESPN also puts out their September MVPs for every top 25 team and give it to the team and conference leader in tackles.
- The momentum in the 247 crystal balls has swung to Notre Dame for recent UW visitor and prime OLB target Bralen Trice. That includes a pick from Greg Biggins, who unfortunately basically never puts in a CB unless he’s heard directly from the recruit where they’re going.
- It’s no surprise that several Huskies featured on PFF’s Pac-12 teams of the week after their dominant performance against BYU:
