During Washington’s home game against Utah on Saturday afternoon, an explosive play on defense turned into an absolute disaster before winding up all working out in the end for the Huskies.
In one of those “what just happened” type of moments, Utah quarterback Bryson Barnes threw an interception right into the hands of Washington linebacker Alphonzo Tuputala, who would run it back to the house for a seeming pick-six.
However, Tuputala would fumble the ball right before crossing the touchdown plane. Utah would recover the ball and essentially punt the ball back to itself deep into its own territory.
Right after that, the Huskies would come up with a huge safety, giving them two points out of the sequence instead of seven.
If you’re scratching your head and trying to figure out what in the world just happened here, don’t worry. We’ve got a full breakdown of how this wild sequence went down.
