NCAAF News: Washington outlasts Arizona behind Michael Penix Jr. (5 TDs)

Michael Penix Jr. set the school record for passing yards in a game and accounted for five touchdowns as host Washington outlasted Arizona 49-39 in a Pac-12 Conference game on Saturday afternoon in Seattle.

Penix finished 36 of 44 for 516 yards and four TDs and also ran for a score. The previous school record was 455 yards, by Cody Pickett in 2001 against Arizona.

Washington (5-2, 2-2 Pac-12) topped the 500-yard mark (595) for the fourth time this season and improved to 5-0 at home. The Huskies had lost their last two on the road.

Arizona (3-4, 1-3) made it interesting late, cutting an 18-point deficit to three with 9:51 to go, but Cameron Davis iced it with a 19-yard TD run with 5:30 remaining.

The Wildcats got 400 passing yards and four TDs from Jayden de Laura, his third 400-yard game this season.

Up 21-14 at the half thanks to a 4-yard TD catch by Sam Adams II with eight seconds left in the second quarter, Washington needed only 45 seconds to double the lead. Penix hit Rome Odunze deep for a 45-yard TD to make it 28-14.

Jonah Coleman scored on a 3-yard run to get Arizona within 28-21 with 12:16 left in the third, only to see Penix score on an 8-yard run four minutes later to extend Washington’s edge to 14 again.

After a career-long 48-yard field goal by Arizona’s Tyler Loop, Penix and Odunze connected on another long one, a 48-yard score to put the Huskies up 42-24 late in the third.

Washington jumped out to a 7-0 lead on a 23-yard catch by Jalen McMillan, the seventh consecutive game the Huskies have scored on their opening drive. They went for it on fourth-and-2 in the red zone and were stuffed, and Arizona capitalized with a 46-yard TD pass to Tetairoa McMillan to tie it with 1:40 left in the first quarter.

Davis scored a 1-yard run on a direct snap to put Washington up 14-7 early in the second, but Arizona evened the game on a 39-yard Dorian Singer TD catch with 2:23 left before halftime.
