A savvy and elusive style back, Myles Gaskin is one of the more feared offensive players in all of college football, especially when he lines up alongside quarterback Jake Browning in the backfield, arguably the best gunslinger in all of the Pac-12. Gaskin posted eerily similar back-to-back campaigns in 2015 and 2016, rushing for 1,373 yards and 10 touchdowns in the latter year, including six games where he eclipsed the 100-yard mark. While Gaskin did seem to struggle in moments against top-tier teams, posting a combined 85 yards on 25 carries in the Huskies’ two losses last season to USC and Alabama, that type of outlier production could be more of a sign of his over-matched offensive line, than his inability to work as a consistent rusher.
