The nation’s leading passing team scores four times by rushing.
TUCSON, Arizona — Once the sun went down in this desert metropolis, sweat-stained during the day by its 90-plus fall temperatures, everything cooled off.On Saturday night at Arizona Stadium, the Huskies continued to barrel through their regular-season schedule like some runaway train, with sparks flying and rails squealing, by beating the Arizona Wildcats 31-24 in a game that wasn't nearly that close at Arizona Stadium.
Michael Penix Jr. completed 30 of 40 passes for 363 yards and, again, no TD passes after leading the nation with 16. Johnson led all rushers with 89 yards on 15 carrries. Moving 57 yards in 7 plays, Bernard took a handoff running to the left, just like he did to open the scoring at Michigan State, and tumbled into the end zone without much resistance — marking the fifth rushing touchdown this season for a Husky pass-catcher, with Bernard the only one with two.
Tyler Loop's 30-yard field goal for Arizona with 23 seconds left in the half narrowed the score to 21-10.
