SALT LAKE CITY — The good, the bad and the lingering questions from the Huskies’ 21-7 victory over Utah in their Pac-12 opener late Saturday:
THE GOOD
Go, go Gaskin
On the one hand, it would seem odd to not highlight first the performance of the Washington defense. But then, the return of Myles Gaskin — of that Myles Gaskin — was probably the greatest development for the Huskies on Saturday night. Gaskin was never worried, of course. “Like I told y’all before … ” he said after the game. The Huskies believe they are built to take advantage of what a defense gives them, and the game plan in the first two games called for more passing — Auburn and North Dakota were determined to stop the run.
