It wasn’t the most explosive passing day with no throw longer than 19 yards, but Michael Penix and the receivers combined for another 300+ yard day and 2 touchdowns. Richard Newton can claim the longest pass play of the day with his 36 yard catch and run in the fourth quarter to extend the UW lead to two touchdowns. On that play, Penix did what he does best: hang in the pocket, move through his progressions, and find the open man, who in this case may have been the fourth option. Newton did an impressive job shaking off a tackler, stiff arming another, and staying in bounds as he ran up the sideline.
