UW, Ohio State balance fun and football during Rose Bowl week

On Wednesday, it was a trip to Disneyland. Thursday brought an evening at a comedy show. And Friday night? The Lawry’s Beef Bowl.

Washington’s veteran players are used to this. It’s the Huskies’ third straight trip to a New Year’s Six Bowl, so the balancing act between downtime and football is routine for them by now.

With UW and Ohio State in Southern California for a week before the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1, junior wide receiver Aaron Fuller said it’s important to have the time away from football.

And while the Huskies often travel to California for games, this is the first time Fuller has been able to experience any of the cities.
