Well, it wasn’t the season that many Washington fans were hoping it would be back in August, but things could have gone so much worse for the Washington Huskies this season. Jedd Fisch and UW managed to make it to bowl eligibility, the Huskies were unbeatable at home in Husky Stadium, and there’s a chance that this team ends up with a winning record.

All things considered, not a bad season. 

Not a great one, but considering what Fisch inherited after Kalen DeBoer left in a hurry, this year could have been so much worse. So, hey, we’ll take it. We’ll take the Huskies getting four Big Ten wins this season, including a bit of revenge over Michigan from the national title game. 

And the Huskies found a way to end up in the Big Ten’s middle class this year. So, we’ve got that going for us.
