December is Dawg Eat Dawg month
Competition heats up for the Washington Huskies as the temperatures cool off. The team runs into two powerhouse teams in Kansas and Gonzaga this month, and will definitely give the team great feedback as to how good the program has progressed.
Expect to see a stingier defense this month at times as the players begin to understand their roles and responsibilities. Once more, I project a 4-3 record in this month. That brings the team to 8-6.
