Washington Huskies vs. Weber State | FULL GAME Final | Aug 31 ,2024 | NCAA Men's College Football

that the huskys are so high on is Adam Muhammad but Deon Williams a guy who threw for over 10,000 pass uh 10,000 passing yards 93 touchdowns only had 12 picks but he is a freak of an athlete and he was committed to Jed fish to go to Arizona part of a a larger class that Jed was Jed was able to flip to then bring here to Washington and and you mentioned J his eyes lighting up at Arizona consistently top five top 10 passing attacks it's an easy sell for quarterbacks to want to come play for Co Williams back to pass slips out of ATT tackle slips out of another still on his feet positive yardage for Deon Williams you see the athleticism right there well you see the speed able to turn that corner I mean the fact is it looked like weer state had him dead to RS have him in the pocket they're blitzing and they bringing in defensive back safties and here it is look at the speed get around the corner turn the corner and get positive yards Big Time play by DeMont said he's one of the fastest on the team oh no doubt no doubt offensive player of the year in high school back in Arizona Basia High School I mean that was a gain of five but he ran a quarter mile to get that five Williams bubble screen lots of room still on his feet finally brought down Denzel Boston fifth catch of the night that was good for 20 yards he has matched his entire season total in catches from last year this drives all about the future there's deong Williams flashing a hand off to freshman Adam mahamed and throwing the screen out to Denzel Boston who's a sophomore so pretty exciting right now but pretty exciting going starting to cook with some gas since the start of that second quarter five catches for 70 yards two minutes gone by in this fourth quarter Williams steps up still looking downfield look at End Zone incomplete oo wow got dragged down the ball was already gone he's trying to get it to degraph who scored a touchdown earlier today well you really can't fault him for Williams wanted to take a shot Force out of the pocket sees his young tight end running down the field and a little bit of looks like a post route or an angle route deep route Jake and it just cannot connect and of course you hear the booze in the background because the fans wanted to pass interference there's one of them it's a sharp tie though I tell you you know that's a that's a good look I don't see a lot of ties with a big chain around it no you don't no he must got an nil deal or something a chain he's an incoming freshman at Washington he's got a year of Eligibility one of the new guys on the RO exactly to muhamed up the cut there goes Muhammad still on his feet down to the one I was wondering if his moment momentum had landed on the Wildcat Defender and They Carried him in the end zone it it looked like I think he might have I I I that's what I was questioning and I mean Washington's going to hurry up rather than looking at it but they've been consistent why not hand it to them off hand it off to him again here and the officials are going to come in I'm glad they did because he had a false start the previous ruling of the runner short the goal line is being reviewed hat that jumped out a little early so I'm glad they did whistle it dead 32 yd run does he land on the defender 65 340 out of Los [Applause] Angeles first and goal from the six Williams to pass got a guy touchdown down Denzel Boston welcome to college football deont Williams he's done a little bit of everything tonight he has been involved in special teams they targeted him underneath over top shown some great things after the catch this one is just called putting a little sauce on it baby watch him come in here bam foot in the ground when you lose a DB like that that's one you might throw up on Instagram tomorrow great route 6yd touchdown reception for Denzel Boston the first of his collegiate career so who's going to get that football first for Williams first for Boston give it to the quarterback and say remember I did this but throw me throw me a couple more passes first of many hopefully for that duo Washington starting to pull away in Seattle and then dapping up right there uh Jed fish just you know getting that support from his teammates but also demonstrating that leadership you want to see in your quarterback guys thanks so much Brooke kick that sails through the end zone a Touchback 1152 to go in the ball game well next Saturday number two Ohio State takes on Western Michigan in prime time at the shoe coverage begins 7:30 Eastern 4:30 to congratulations some high five some dab does does take more than that to show you appreciation they take care of the hands to take care of you Bankston gets the carry goes over the right side he's got a lot of space makes a man miss now two now three and finally going to get dragged down by three Huskies at the 40 yd line good run for Bankston 35 y like was talk all day right that's what like I was talking about there are some holes and I know they're playing a lot some backups but you still have some sters that are in there that you have to clean this up other team there are going to be some there are going to be some teams that are going to look at this and say this is the way to get to this husky defense it's been off that right it's been off tackle to the right totally agree that's where all the the plays have hit see bankson over 100 yds on the ground played five games last year for Weaver State got hurt just the rest of the season Munoz flushed out Munoz going to go down brought down by a lot I grew up in Columbus Ohio I went to the University of Michigan I mean I've been beaming like Jed fish we talking about Theon Williams being up here in the booth out here in Washington in Big 10 country yeah I'm happy I get to rack up some frequent fly miles travel east that's always good it's going to be fun to watch the the styles of play too because you look at the Pack 12 Conference and what it used to be it was a lot of offense some of the best offenses in the country came out of the Pack 12 Conference Jed fish had one of those with Arizona how does that gel with what is in the Big 10 well that's why it's so imperative to run the football you know be able to run the football because when you get into that inclement weather back in the East and the November and stuff like that it's going to be hard to throw it the way Washington has has had success over the last couple years they ran the football extremely well then nice play flag comes out late they should be holding holding 59 of the offense penalties declined fourth down fourth down they declin the penalty on Terren Caldwell The Way Washington has run the football today that holds up in whatever weather you want to play I mean Jed coach fish has done a phenomenal job embracing the new in the challenge we've talked about him bringing in Bill bich Pete Carroll you know this is this that was an amazing season for the program last year and then all of a sudden it's brand new but he's a smart coach that understands what it takes to win and he's made it an EMP made a emphasis saying to win in the Big 10 got to win in the trenches going to get a timeout by Weber State I think it's important to to note Jake that you played for jet fish you know what it's like to play in this offense you know what it's like for him to be calling your plays one of the smartest coaches I would say the smartest coach one of the best offensive Minds I've ever K deor to Alabama bringing in Jud fish is really impressive run on fourth down flushed out going to try and run for it brought down going to be close to a first they may give it to him they will took a monster hit a big hit gain of seven and a first down for weer State on Fourth once again I mean nothing downfield fresh set of downs for the [Music] Wildcats to the outside in space tight roping on the sideline it'll call him short of the first down gain of eight and that's the bubble screen they've been trying to activate all day get to the outside and you saw how Muno pulled it down quickly record was able to get to the outside and sort of sideline ti ti roope to sideline Cormier ball was on the turf but it went right into his stomach I think it's interesting back on the jet fish conversation for a moment he took over that Arizona program and his first year they go one and 11 by the time he left they were number 11 in the country with the season ended last year totally different story you come into Washington they played for a national championship last year it's not quote unquote a rebuild but man there are so many new faces it almost is a rebuild and there was similar you look at Washington and Arizona those are two of the top programs I think one and two in ranked wins last year right those principles carry over hand it off to Cormier trying to get to the outside and tackled now the defense is tightening up after giving up that big play to record start on this drive they tightened up on the last couple plays to force it down to a fourth down but to your point you know it it's there's a lot of Pride that is resonating in the stadium and they really do feel like it's slightly disrespected the fact that they weren't in the top 25 and the team that's down another state away is in the top five so let's wait for the penalty here and I'll finish my point there is no fou the play the contact is legal I'm out on the field for an injured player so time out for an injured player we'll continue the conversation when we come back always going to be helped off the field we're going to stick around here but it's the first team ever that played for a national championship and then goes into the next season is unranked it's never happened in this FBS in the playoff situation it's never happened before right and I think you know we're all going to be exposed to a sort of newness when it comes to college sports because there were going to be Washington's not the only one there are a lot of programs that had to rebuild their rosters through the transfer and that might be a Conant he might not have the gracious the luck of having a guy for his entire career or he might have him for four years and then he transer to go somewhere else that's just what you R into over the head of Bon incomplete he had him that was fourth down so turnover on Downs take a timeout in Seattle talk about intimidation she gy Christmas Deon Williams back at quarterback playaction pass Williams going to keep it get to the outside and get out of bounds let's take a look at that Washington schedule and what's coming up and you get into the the Big 10 portion of it on September 21st but with another catch it say all college football playoff contenders Williams to pass again going to the corner and missed his re receiver was trying to get it to audri Harris another freshman had over a th000 yards in his high school career at Bishop Gorman as I will also add to that you know that schedule Jake and Jeff the fact is I've never never seen a been on a calendar where we had two buys yeah MH and that's another thing that's changing about college football I know with the extended playoff and stuff like that but two Buys in a regular season that's unusual can I say one more thing about that schedule sure you can that that's a huge reason I'm excited for the expansion of the Big 10 right there those matchups that schedule we we got a rematch of the national championship there right right in the early part of October Washington punts it away the thrower for a fair catch 601 to play after the 40 yd punt field day around the conference that's tonight right after football only on the Big 10 Network in the Fox Sports app Weaver State back on offense Richie Muno still in this ball [Music] game see if he can put something together towards the tail end of this game and getting ready for week two Bankston wrapped up after a short gain on first first down we've alluded to it but the new playoff schedule now 12 teams going into the tournament you extend the season a couple of weeks where do you guys land on on the college football playoff system it all works together cuz we we bring up the Washington schedule this that's the new normal that's it's extremely competitive and in the fouram playoff you could what one loss you're maybe okay two losses you're out of the conversation no doubt right and three losses it's it's over but now in in this current landscape with the tougher schedule you can afford two maybe even three losses and get into the playoffs so what that also does is for us to talk about the sport there's going to be 25 to 30 teams into November that field they have a chance to get in that conversation which just it's going to make for fireworks down the stretch of the Season you know what what plays in my mind and what what's interesting to see and I'll see how it all plays out is that you know the the power four conferences the top four conferences will have a b okay they're Champion but the lower seeds will even have HomeField game so you can actually have a team with a lesser record entertaining a game you know and and back in you know bad weather places and stuff like that um that is interesting with the playoff and when you see that Dynamic sort of un for I think that's a a great part of what this is catch made by Clarence Butler trying to get to the first down brought down maybe a yard short is that you're going to have these schools that are hosting playoff games I think that is awesome for college football no doubt that is college football right like that that's we the the the fan bases the environment the stakes when you think about hosting a playoff game at that point in the season well you know for a long time for me I thought that December was a waste on college football because you had your sort of sporadic bowls and I'm not trying to discl know not include them but the fact is is that there was a lot of time where you could be playing critical football like they're going to do in the playoffs now yeah a 3- we time from Thanksgiving until the ball started was wild they pick up a fourth down Weber State's going to move the chains under four to play but now you're going to have those playoff games in your home stadiums you don't have to go somewhere else so if you end up with a I'm just going to throw a team out there Miami South Florida and they have to go play Penn State up in State College in December December exactly Dolphins going to Kansas City or the dolphin you know right beautiful this is football right this is that's what you want give it again to the outside SLI one tackle couldn't avoid the other another stop by Anthony Ward his second tackle on this drive but I thought for so long there were a lot of the sort of s quote unquote power schools that were playing the schedule game where they would have like a difficult matchup and then you either schedule a cupcake or a buy before your next match up well that takes it out because you don't have to go undefeated in order to be viable well you know off that too this is now an NFL schedule in terms of Big Brand on Big Brand but now you could play 16 weeks this could be a 16 game schedule right so all of a sudden I mean in the NFL you can't you actually it's against the CBA to be in full pads and hitting and tackling in season right the that's on the college coaches now to adjust to their team like how do you how do you weigh do we need to bang in practice ver hey this is a long season we got to keep our guys fresh you won't you will you'll have to take both the NFL and the college will take similar approaches where you'll get a lot of your hitting done in the early part of camp but then you'll taper down as the season goes on because you got to keep guys Fresh So this the same model that the NFL has at the training camp and most training camps are NFL teams only last a couple weeks anyways first down again for Weber State about 10 seconds until our two-minute timeout in the fourth quarter it's where I feel like Washington has an advantage to get some guys that oh I'm being told it's vanill latte oh yeah yeah you can get the vanilla latte so you tell me something you Chicago guys is it is it possible to get a deep dish pizza that later night oh yeah oh yeah you just got to call ahead 45 minutes it takes yeah I'm I'm with that from in the studio all night that's cool oh yeah man you can do that we can make that happen for you we got connection there we go that's what I like to know these are all important things to know as Cormier Runs Out of Bounds after a short game so 155 to go for Weaver State I mean I got to imagine they want to get in the end zone try and get yourself a touchdown see what you can do late got time all learnable moments for Weber State they've been tryan no doubt remember this was a a scoreless game for first 18 minutes of this contest and then finally the dam broke and Jonah Coleman started to assert himself three touchdowns for Jonah colan that's where the schedule I I just think it it does lend itself to help Washington a little bit right you got to you settle into this game but you also settle into the season we talk about the apple cup week three you got a little bit of a Runway to get to know each other ahead of that game and then then it's time then then then is the real test here for the Huskies third and nine for Weber State handed off and right into the arms Butler on the stop no gain fourth and nine I've seen the adjustment that I was looking for out of the Huskies they went to their what we call a double eagal front where you in essence you have five linemen covered up by five Defenders and that time he had great penetration able to get to get in the back field and tackle for loss but this is something that's going that's going to resonate all year with them they've got to show that they can stop the r fourth and nine Munoz sidearm pass and incomplete turn over on downs and all Washington has to do is take a couple of knees yeah what's it like for you though coming back now part of the Big 10 and you see jet fish and this team compete well we you know showed me on the field earlier it is somewhat of a homecoming when I look at this stadium and I look at everything that it's been through you know when I first got here the the new facility wasn't built they only had one Crows Nest a TV Camera Pro Camera wow on the side one Crows Nest and we used to talk about it in practice how it has grown you see this beautiful Stadium what it how Washington has expanded to keep up with with the current climate in college sports and it was it's it's a homecoming it's definitely a homecoming had a lot of fond memories in this great City and if I could could have been a part of nil I would have probably been one of those fourthe sophomores that never wanted to leave school I don't know you made out okay first round I no trust me I I didn't do bad but you know but here still I I loved Seattle and I I thought about you know even coming and living here after I was done playing hasn't happened cuz I couldn't take the climate from this well we got it on a great weekend though doubt the weather out here has been phenomenal 75° day haven't seen a cloud for two days as Adams pick up a first down every running back that Washington has run out there has an extreme motor yeah Scotty grant their running back coaches he's going to love watching this film tomorrow no doubt about it that's that's called a standard though right without a doubt without a doubt if you're going to be running back by committee you want the entire committee to be good that's what they have right my coach would say you don't want to Tiptoe Through the Tulips right none of that out there you guys are running to punish somebody best formation of football right here you're going to snap it one final [Applause] time Jed fish one and0 as the head coach at Washington 15 straight home wins it's the third longest active in the FBS we talked talked about what the offense would look like fellas great balance 278 yds passing 205 on the ground they will face better
