Washington QB Jake Browning plays almost flawlessly in easy win over BYU

SEATTLE — It was a matchup of senior quarterbacks Saturday night at Husky Stadium — Washington’s Jake Browning and BYU’s Tanner Mangum.

Browning picked the Cougars apart, became the school’s all-time leading passer and came away with a dominating 35-7 victory.

Browning completed 23 of 25 passes for 277 yards and a touchdown. It was a performance reminiscent of Wisconsin QB Alex Hornibrook’s performance against BYU last year, when he completed 18 of 19 passes for 256 yards and four touchdowns.

“Jake did a great job pulling the ball and throwing when he needed to,” said BYU coach Kalani Sitake.
