Washington overcomes Michael Penix Jr.’s off-night to edge Arizona State

The Heisman Trophy may be as slippery as a wet football.

Michael Penix Jr. of Washington had his worst game of the season and the Huskies needed a pick-six to down one-win Arizona State, 15-7, on Saturday.

The decisive score came when Mishael Powell stepped in front of Trenton Bourget’s throw on fourth-and-3 from the 12 and sprinted down the left sideline to help Washington win its 14th straight.

The Huskies needed the play on a night when Penix threw two picks and lost a fumble.

Penix was 27-of-42 for 275 yards and the 2 picks.
