The Washington Huskies and the Kent State Golden Flashes will face off at 10:30 p.m. ET Sept. 3 at Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium to kick off their 2022 seasons. Last year was nothing to brag about for Washington (4-8), so the team is looking forward to a new start. Kent State struggled last year, too, ending up 7-7.
A pair of last-season stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Few squads threw more interceptions than the Huskies, who were picked off 16 times. Kent State's defense has more to brag about, as they they snagged 16 interceptions last season, the eighth most in the nation. Their secondary is poised to pounce all over Washington's passing game.
Washington has the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency. These early season matchups can go either way as both teams get back into playing shape.
