Lynch had a key TFL and batted down a pass

Yes, who cares what Lynch looks like after a key TFL and TWO batted down passes? We don't need him to win the underwear Olympics.
Walters was getting too fancy in the first half with zone blitzes but their frosh QB wasn't phased by it. I'm glad he ditched that and mostly went with man coverage saying "let's just out athlete these guys".
Leroy Bryant also played well and was tough as the nickel back.
The offense also made an adjustment in having Coleman stay in more to help McCree in pass-pro. Coleman also helped Azzopardi during a key completion. I'm not sure why the offense didn't have a better plan to help McCree and putting Moore / DeGraaf next to McCree to chip the DE but maybe they thought Williams would take off and run more (like he did in the 2nd half) instead of holding it / taking sacks (like in the first).
Hopefully Willis, Durfee, and Mills can come back for the Michigan game. Durfee is key because with Russell Davis out for the season, Lane and the Lynch / Ward combo aren't enough against better conference teams.

I'm not gonna go too much into critiquing a player man but it's not just the look man. Especially against Ohio State.

Yikes tough take. Roebuck is "slow and small" and possibly our best WR.
Our practice player Durfee hasn't had a game as good as Lynch had

Leroy Bryant basically got beat on 3rd down which would have been a touchdown if the receiver caught the ball. He just is not up to par in his coverage skills. Washington was lucky the receiver didn’t catch it even though it was a perfect pass. Next play was 4th down and Pysock batted it down

It was a dime. It wasn’t terrible coverage and Leroy Bryant does make some plays, but he’s not great right now. Clark was obviously a spring Doog legend. He doesn’t even see the field.

If/when Taco comes back, Bryant will have some competition with Dylan Robinson and Batman. Against certain teams, we can get away with going bigger at nickel.

Here’s some hawt DB talk that I love! Saturday was easily Bryant’s best game as a Husky. That’s how poor he’s been this year. Slot is easily his best position, watching him as CB2 in the Apple Cup was brutal. Even worse than Robinson was as CB2 against Maryland. I give DR a pass because he’s a true freshman and he’s had some moments of brilliance. Also, I’m not calling Prysock “Loadsock” to my friends anymore. He’s been really, really good this year. Took the mythical Coach Pete, “extra step” as a senior. Lastly, is Esteen possibly the worst open field tackler at UW? It’s like he took lessons from Asa Turner Overdrive. My goodness. He runs full sprint at ball carriers, they cut, he flys by. Does he have the supple hips to break down and wrap up? Me thinks not. There’s a reason a guy in his sixth year is splitting reps with an 18 year old nicknamed Batman.

Double move where we got no pressure on the QB and Robinson bit on the route at the sticks on third and long.

This has been the best tackling Husky defense I can remember in quite some time. Our DL is actually really impressive around the LOS making tackles too.
Prysock has been a revelation too and would be awesome to see him again with Davis across the field. It's almost like fate won't let him get an interception with the final pass from Maryland being one you wouldn't want him to intercept anyway.

Robinson gave up one pass to Maryland

Is that right? Seemed like he was behind a lot of first half third down conversions. He was really good in the fourth quarter of the Apple Cup and not overwhelmed vs OSU but I felt he was getting picked on by Maryland. I could be wrong.

@theknowledge Yeah Dan Raley has an article about how the secondary performed.

McLaughlin led the team in tackles but got cooked
