Locker & Co Put The Hurt On USC Once Again

In a game that seemed eerily similar to UW's upset of USC last year, Jake Locker took the Huskies offense on his shoulders, and showed us once again what makes him such a special player.

In talking about the circumstances surrounding UW's conversion of a 4th and 10 on the game-winning drive, Locker said: "... when we got in the huddle I said 'I love you guys. We've got one more down to continue this drive and give ourselves a chance to win this game.' And there wasn't one guy in the huddle that thought we couldn't do it. I looked at each guy in the eye and saw confidence and that's why I think we were able to convert.''



While the defense wasn't spectacular, it did enough to keep us in the game, especially in the 4th quarter holding USC to only a field goal.

Let's not forget to give credit where it is due: Eric Folk. Hitting the game winning field goal last year:


And again this year:


Congrats Huskies, way to make all of us proud!
