OFFENSE:
Sophomore quarterback Cyler Miles will be under center for the Huskies on Saturday. He has only passed for over 200 yards once this entire season, but he has only thrown one interception at the same time. He pairs a 66% completion percentage with 10 passing touchdowns and 1,043 yards to help total the 106th best aerial attack in the nation. He has also tallied 124 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns.
Freshman running back Lavon Coleman takes over the backfield after the Huskies lost Bishop Sankey (now on the Tennessee Titans) following last season. Coleman leads the rushers on Washington with 438 yards and a touchdown.
Jaydon Mickens has been Miles’ main go-to man this year as Mickens leads the team with 36 receptions. Mickens is second on the team in yards with 323 and second in touchdowns with two, just behind John Ross who has 373 yards and four touchdowns.
Overall, the Washington Huskies offense ranks 101st in the nation in yards.
