Earlier today, Washington head football coach Jimmy Lake met with local Seattle media via a Zoom webinar to discuss their 24-21 comeback victory over Utah this past weekend. Lake spoke about how his team battled adversity and never flinched and wavered. He also took the time to talk about the Stanford Cardinal and what that challenge will present for the Huskies this Saturday afternoon.
