UW's starting five will be entirely different from the Cactus Bowl.
Here is the glass-half-full outlook for Washington’s new-look offensive line: Siosifa Tufunga, Shane Brostek and Coleman Shelton all have starting experience.
The glass-half-empty outlook: All that experience amounts to just 15 career starts between them.
That’s it. That’s the entirety of the starting experience the Huskies will line up with in next Friday’s season opener at No. 23 Boise State. For perspective, UW lost twice that much experience on the line with the retirement last week of senior guard Dexter Charles (knee injury), who started 30 games the past three years.
