[Applause] the dogs are [Applause] loose Thursday with ruers now to be a part of the Big 10 for Washington well ever since I wore these colors as these guys are wearing down the football field it's been a fight for respect this team was playing for a national title earlier this year comes back in not even ranked in the top 25 so I know there's a lot of new is around going around college sports but it's a pleasure to be here with the big 10 and more importantly it's a pleasure to Showcase this wonderful University to a national audience well lincol just talked about it Jake this is a team that finished runner up to Michigan last year for National Championship they bring two people back just two but the guys that they brought in have a ton of playing experience yeah that's been the headline all off season is Washington only returns two starters but I think that's a bit deceiving and we could look at just the offensive side of the ball for example Jeremiah Hunter is a new receiver LED Callen receiving last year Jonah Coleman new running back one of the best backs in the country and you replace Michael penck with real Will Rogers and I look at Washington as one of the most underrated programs in college football it is a short list of teams that have been to the playoffs twice in a national championship once so yes there is newness but the standard does not change the standard is to be competitive and win a ton of football games let's go downstairs to Brook Fletcher Jed fish a new opportunity for H against Weaver State yeah you know first impression well that's what been has been Jed fish's message to his team leading up to their big 10 debut here tonight you guys touched on the massive turnover fan base here is [Applause] in got new players night game here to open up ready to kick it away for the Huskies and off we go lence Butler is back to return he'll take a knee and we will see the Weaver State off defense go to work preseason number 22 in the FCS their quarterback Richi Munoz finished on such a high not last year and leads what is a young team but he did get value valuable experience late last season like you said Jeff played in the final five games helping them win their final three asked coach Mickey Mano what he likes so much about him he didn't hesitate said one he's a competitor but more importantly takes care of the football pass on first down goes out to the corner incomplete second down and 10 starting lineup for Weber State start with deont Bankston they really like this junior out of Katy Texas and they've got a bunch of skill guys on the edge that if they get in space it can be a problem right you mentioned the RPO system that's the big piece of this and you look at number 14 Jacob Sharp a guy that they want to get the balls into the hands early talk about nness well this is a brand new offensive line this was effectively their second unit last year now they're getting their chance to start Bankston tail back he gets it on second and 10 over the right tackle big gain and he's near a first down pick up of nine brings up third down and short and that's that big play ability you talk about coming out of the backfield Jake you talk about that Bankston has that ability that Breakaway speed and it was a nice hole that the offensive line opened up against that husky defense ran behind Zoom Espin the 68 sophomore out of Southern California third down and one Bankston gets the give runs into a wall of purple it'll depend on the spot looks like they've got the first down so they pick up a first down and move the chains the defensive alignment for Steve bellich in his first year in Seattle get a couple of guys coming back the ward brothers and Zack dery I mean he is a monster that finally gets an opportunity on that front line yeah they're excited about him they're really excited about this entire D line of course it is new but Jed feels coach head coach jet fish feels they're too deep at every single position sling it out to the outside catch made by jayen recard and picks up four on first down look to see this tonight guys if that's a theme out out of Weaver State when they want to go trips especially in the bounds rate the way it stresses this defense it takes a would be defensive end Isaiah Ward even though he's listed as outside linebacker puts him into space makes him have to cover or cover screens like that Leber State playing fast trips on the bottom side of your screen little bit of a different look to the field you see how the Huskies are playing trip to the field versus to the boundary the give Bankston has to reverse field he's got a crease and he's going to pick up another wild cat first down right to Midfield awfully close to see if they called it short again haven't given the first down yet signal yet there no still short just by inches so third down and very short see look at this initial he gets to that 50 yd line and then Buzz down to change the spot that should be a first down no call yet they put Colter May the fullback in motion third and short Bankston gets it for sure this time second effort leans forward for a first down for Weber State two for two on third down yeah good good play that time by deshun Lynch making a tackle it looked like there was a hole a crease that was opening up for Bankston that if Lynch didn't make that tackle even though he did get the first down could have been a bigger yard bigger [Music] game one of those big transfers for jet fish fouryear player at sack state in the Big Sky Conference so he knows Weaver State well 65 295 out of fome [Applause] California Bankston right side he's got plenty of room to run and driven out of bounds just outside the 30 yd line Mel Easton on the stop after a gain of 18 River State's doing some real good things formally there it was Cameron fulan and the safety which ended up being the edge Setter and they're pulling guards in to that that's an advantageous States offensive line and they were able to take advantage of it putting together a nice drive Bankston again gets the carry and runs into a wall again of husky Defenders yeah Jake you typically on that last play that Breakaway play you don't see it having success running into a blitzing safety but that time the Weber State Wildcats did a good job of picking it up and it sprung them for a nice little game Bankston with 35 yds on the ground already I think it's worth mentioning also guys that the starting defensive line has been rotated out this is their second unit that's on this series we're only in we just started the game you want to see a good dose of rotating those guys in and out all night long Adrien Cormier checks into the back field now for Weber State play fake to amuno out to the corner and a drop they had record in space but he could not make the catch third down and long for Weber State second-year head coach Mickey mentle six and 5 last year a program that has been ranked in the preseason for eight consecutive years he has been on the staff at Weaver State for a long time originally in the quarterback room as an offensive coordinator weer State putting together a nice drive third and nine Munoz to the edge incomplete and the huskys hold it'll bring up fourth down Fus Dixon on the coverage it started by winning those
