The 2018 version of the Huskies has been a contentious experience for fans. On one hand, nobody can deny that this is one of the most fundamentally sound and disciplined versions of the Huskies that fans have seen since the Don James era. The offensive and defensive efficiency rankings, when combined, are very strong (UW is #8 in the country in FEI). The overall performance by the team in discipline stats such as third down conversion, red zone defense, and penalties are in-line with each of the last three years if not better. It has been able to win several games when the outcome was in doubt going into the fourth quarter.
