The UW pass-catchers responded to the defense briefly claiming a big battle.
Following Saturday night's football scrimmage -- where just a handful of touchdowns were scored over 120 plays -- it was fairly safe to say the University of Washington defense was ahead of the offense.Late in the Huskies' 11th fall practice, sophomore Denzel Boston did his part by coming back to catch a ball literally off the back of standout cornerback Ephesians Prysock, turning the sensational play into an 11-yard score from Will Rogers.
Rashid Williams was next, back for just a couple of practices after dealing with an unspecified injury, and he got open the back of the end zone to catch a 6-yard TD pass from Williams. In successive plays, Husky defensive tackle Sebastian Valdez dropped Cam Davis for a 1-yard loss and raised a fist as he got off the ground, and offsetting penalties were called, with nickelback Jordan Shaw found guilty of a face-mask call, seemingly sending momentum to the defense again.
Making the play even more meaningful, Dixon, barely done celebrating his previous success, was the victim, arriving a step too late.
