Grading the Game: Washington at Oregon State

For anyone wondering how the Huskies would respond after a dispiriting loss last week and with hopes for reaching six wins and certain bowl eligibility in the balance, consider that question answered. Emphatically. Yes, this Beaver team is not good: winless in the Pac-12 so far this season and reportedly down to 50 healthy scholarship players for this game. But this was the kind of curb-stomping that good teams apply to bad teams, and it marks the biggest margin of defeat on the year for Oregon State. Washington rolled in this one from the very start, and only Chris Petersen deciding to roll in the backups and refuse to pass the ball starting early in the 3rd quarter kept the Huskies from putting up 70+ points.
