Washington wide receiver Jalen McMillan has actually taken a trip with the group to Stanford and is anticipated to play Saturday, per an ESPN source.McMillan missed last week’s game with Arizona State and played just briefly versus Oregon two weeks ago, as he’s fighting a knee injury. McMillan has had the injury considering that Washington’s win at Michigan State in mid-September. Fellow receiver Germie Bernard has also traveled to the game and is considered a game-time choice whether he plays.The return of McMillan would be an adrenaline shot to Washington’s offense, as he caught 79 balls for 1,098 yards and nine touchdowns last season. He’s considered a leading 100 prospect for the NFL draft and has actually been productive when he has actually played this season, with 20 catches for 311 backyards and three goals in the 3 complete games that he played.No. 5 Washington is coming off its poorest offensive efficiency of the season, as it failed to score an offensive touchdown in a 15-7
win over Arizona State. Washington had simply 288 lawns of total offense.The Huskies are 7-0 and in sole possession of first place in the Pac-12 with a 4-0 record. There’s four one-loss groups in conference play behind them– USC (4-1), Oregon
(3-1 ), Oregon State(3-1)and Utah(3-1).
