Washington overcomes Michael Penix Jr.’s off-night to edge Arizona State
The Heisman Trophy may be as slippery as a wet football.
Michael Penix Jr. of Washington had his worst game of the season and the Huskies needed a pick-six to down one-win Arizona State, 15-7, on Saturday.
The decisive score came when Mishael Powell stepped in front of Trenton Bourget’s throw on fourth-and-3 from the 12 and sprinted down the left sideline to help Washington win its 14th straight.
