- Root Reserve on Washington
Washington’s rushing attack owns a substantial advantage over a Boise State front that grades poorly in rushing success rate allowed. The Huskies should be able to pound away on early downs, stay ahead of the chains, and eventually wear down a defense that has been on the field every week for over a month. Boise State has played five straight weeks, with this bowl following a Mountain West Championship win over UNLV. With the number sitting just over a touchdown, our bet is that Washington’s balanced offense and superior rushing metrics eventually create enough margin to cover, especially if Boise State’s defense wilts late. Any defensive fatigue is more likely to show up in the second half, where Washington’s physical rushing style can start to tilt the game. The Huskies are top twenty in EPA per rush and rushing success rate. Washington’s rushing efficiency and ability to finish drives give the Huskies a substantial edge.
