Washington names starting QB for UCLA clash

Washington named its starting QB.

The UCLA Bruins look to continue the three-game winning streak with a Friday night game on the road against the Washington Huskies.

UCLA is fresh off a stunning win over Iowa, and all of a sudden, life is back in the football program.

The Huskies, on the other hand, have a 5-5 record but have lost three of the last four games with the win coming against the USC Trojans.

Washington lost to Penn State on the road, 35-6.

While questions swirled about the quarterback position, Jedd Fisch left no doubt, per Roman Tomashoff of UW Huskies Wire.

“Will (Rogers) will start Friday,” Fisch said.

Despite Demond Williams Jr. seeing some time against Penn State, Fisch is rolling with Rogers once again.

Rogers threw for just 59 yards with no score and an interception in the blowout loss.

On the year, Rogers has 2,343 yards with 13 touchdowns and five interceptions, although he hasn’t thrown a touchdown pass since October 12 against Iowa.
