Jake Browning’s exalted place in Washington’s football history is secure.
He will go down as the longest-tenured, winningest and most statistically abundant quarterback in school history.
He’s the guy who beat nationally ranked USC – in Los Angeles – as a freshman, ended the frustrating streak of futility against Oregon by accounting for eight touchdowns in a 70-21 romp as a sophomore and engineered his third consecutive Apple Cup rout as a junior (as well as another cakewalk over Oregon).
In three years, Browning has led the Huskies to a Pac-12 title, a national playoff berth and 29 victories (and counting).
