SEATTLE — BYU was big enough for the moment in Wisconsin, but in Seattle, the moment was way too big for the Cougars.
In an attempt to capture the nation’s attention a second time in September, No. 11 Washington outclassed No. 20 BYU in about every way imaginable in Husky Stadium Saturday night in a 35-7 win.
Jake Browning completed 23 of 25 passes for 277 yards and one touchdown to lead Washington past a BYU team that struggled to make big plays on both sides of the line while making a trainload of mistakes.
In short, Washington’s speed ate BYU alive, and its size and depth and athleticism was just too much.
