Jedd Fisch and the Washington Huskies are in a completely different ecosystem than they’ve been in all season. Literally speaking, that is. For those that don’t know, El Paso, Texas is wildly different than Seattle, Washington.
That’s not to say one is better than the other or anything along those lines. That’s not where I’m going with this. Where I’m going is that Seattle, especially this time of year, happens to have a fair bit of rain and get kinda cold and stuff.
El Paso, on the other hand, is a bit different. It’s drier. And this year, with the various different atmospheric forces at play, it’s a bit warmer. It’ll snow in El Paso occasionally. It’ll get cold in El Paso. But right now? It’s a nice temperate temperature that won’t really overwhelm anyone in any sort of way.
