About 25 frustrated Washington football players were delayed getting home because of severe weather in Texas.
Moments after completing his first season as the Huskies’ starting quarterback with a win in the Heart of Dallas Bowl, Jake Browning already had formulated a short to-do list for the offseason.
Before getting to any of that, though, he would have to find a way to scramble out of Dallas.
As a true freshman, Browning threw for 2,955 yards, the fifth-highest season total in Washington history, including 284 yards in the 44-31 victory over Southern Mississippi on Saturday. His reward for the bowl-game victory was nearly a full day spent in the Dallas airport, stranded along with a couple dozen teammates trying to get home for the new year.
