The biggest factor in the win over Stanford was a breakout game for the pass rush. UW was thin in the secondary, so it was extra critical to not allow Tanner McKee much time to throw. All offseason, the staff and the players have been talking about how much more aggressive the defense would be under Inge & Morrell, and although we’ve seen a more active front, this week was the first time the pass rush really changed the flow of the game. It’s true that McKee is not a mobile QB, but it’s clear that the Huskies have talented pass rushers.
