The dynamic duo has enjoyed the program’s best four-year run in nearly 30 seasons, led their team to the College Football Playoff in 2016 and will have the opportunity to bring the Huskies their second Pac-12 Title in three years.<\/p>\n
Steve Sarkisian didn’t leave the cupboard bare, however Washington’s 2015 recruiting class that contained both Browning and Gaskin laid down the foundation of what Chris Pederson has built in Seattle. A winning culture at a blue blood program on the west coast that competes annually for championships.<\/p>\n
Since their arrival the Huskies’ have flown to new heights the program hasn’t seen since 2000 and compiled a record of 38-14. Both players have also opened up the school record books during their stay.<\/p>\n
Browning has won 38 games as a starter, with a chance to reach 40 and he’s the school’s all-time leader in both passing yards and touchdown passes. The six-foot-two, 210-pound California native earned Pac-12 Offensive Player of The Year honors in 2016. He is also the winningest quarterback in Pac-12 history.<\/p>\n
Gaskin is the hometown kid and the first running back in Pac-12 history to rush for a 1,000 yards or more in four-straight seasons. He’s the school’s all-time leader in career rushing and total touchdowns and yards on the ground. Gaskin is hard to get a hold of in the open field and reminds people of Darren Sproles with his explosiveness.<\/p>\n
The Huskies are fresh off an upset win over the Cougars, which was also their sixth-straight victory in the Apple Cup and propelled the team into the the Pac-12 Championship Game. Washington is better than its’ 9-3 record and the three losses this season were by a combined 10 points.<\/p>\n
Washington is currently No. 10 in the latest AP Poll and has a chance to clinch a berth in a New Year’s Six Bowl for a second-straight year with a win this Friday. The Huskies’ offense is only averaging 28 points per game and their passing-attack has been nothing to smile about, which is why the unit depends heavily on the legs of Browning and Gaskin.<\/p>\n
It’s hard to imagine what the Huskies will be like after their two four-year starters at quarterback and running back are gone. The two have been the face of the program for four-straight seasons. Husky fans need to enjoy the team’s last two games with Browning and Gaskin in the backfield.<\/p>\n
The duo seems irreplaceable and like the famous Julius Caesar quote; they came, they saw and they conquered the Pac-12 record books. Browning and Gaskin have been a joy to watch and always give every game their all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
