QB Michael Penix Jr’s 6.2 yards per attempt was his second lowest average of the season (5.8 verse Oregon State was his lowest), while completing only 54% of his passes. PFF also gives him two turnover worthy plays, while everyone other game this season he had zero or one. While WSU generated some pass rush, he faced more pressures against Michigan State, Oregon, Arizona State, and Utah. We don’t know if this was part of the game plan, or just what he was seeing out there, but he was clearly avoiding the middle of the field.
