Power ratings based entirely on the scoreboard, except when they aren’t …

Dylan Morris passed for 367 yards and three touchdowns, Jalen McMillan had 10 catches for 175 yards and a score, and Washington rebounded from two disappointing losses with a 52-3 win over Arkansas State on Saturday.

In Washington's first two games — both losses — the Husky front seven has been severely exposed, surrendering 235 rushing yards per game and 5.22 yards per carry.

UW’s first offensive play against Michigan was a delay-of-game penalty.

The Cougars have a bevy of playmakers and could win the game outright if they protect the ball.

When asked on Tuesday how he can personally improve, UW running back Richard Newton — who has mustered just 86 rushing yards and three yards per carry in the Huskies’ 0-2 start — considered the question, then said: “Making something out of nothing. I think I could do that a lot better.”

In his weekly news conference Monday, Jimmy Lake said the University of Washington's struggles start with some variation of “us,” “me” or “coaching” six different times. He said it “comes back to coaching” four times, and sprinkled in a “we have to coach them better” to complete the ambiguous accountability theme.

The Ducks nudged out UCLA this week after beating Ohio State.

It wouldn’t be fair to place the blame on one man for this train wreck of a start.
