SEATTLE -- This much is certain about No. 9 Washington: It can beat up on lesser competition.In cruising to an impressive 3-0 start, the Huskies have done most things very well. Quarterback Jake Browning is leading the country in pass efficiency, the Huskies have scored 40 or more points in six straight games and plenty of younger players have gotten valuable experience in a less-than-challenging nonconference scheduled that featured Rutgers, Idaho and Portland State.What Washington has yet to find out is how it will react to adversity. What happens when the Huskies are playing from behind or are in a competitive game into the fourth quarter? Its a luxury that Washington has yet to face but is a lingering question as the Huskies start Pac-12 Conference play this week at Arizona.Well see if were ready. Thats easier said than done. It certainly feels better and different when youre in the fourth quarter and have a comfortable lead, as opposed to fighting and clawing all the way down, Washington coach Chris Petersen said. We havent encountered that one yet, but we obviously talk about it every week because we anticipate that. It just hasnt happened. But I suspect it will.Washingtons roll through the nonconference portion of its schedule saw the Huskies outscore their three opponents 148-30. They never trailed in any of the three games, and dating back to last season have not trailed since the first quarter of the Apple Cup last November against Washington State, a span of nearly five whole games. The Huskies were tied for all of 21 seconds in the third quarter of the Heart of Dallas Bowl against Southern Mississippi before Myles Gaskin went 86 yards for a touchdown.So its been a while since Brownings had to make an important third-down throw to keep a drive going late in a game, or Washingtons stout defense has been asked to get a key stop and get the ball back to the offense. And while things get drilled constantly in practice, theres no track record with this years group that it can transfer to a game.Seeing it live and having to go through the adversity in an actual game where it really, really counts is one thing. But weve been through spring ball, through fall camp; we have definitely faced adversity in practice, Browning said after beating Portland State on Saturday . Now, can that transfer to the game? Thats the big thing. But I dont have any doubt that well handle it. But you never really know until you know.The Wildcats (2-1) will present Washingtons first true examination in a place where Petersen suffered one of his most painful defeats two years ago when the Huskies were unable to run out the clock in the closing minutes and a fumble led to Arizona kicking a field goal on the final play for a 27-26 win . Washingtons last win at Arizona came in 2006, and there is the showdown lingering on the horizon with No. 7 Stanford at home on Sept. 30.To go to Arizona in a night game to open the league, that is going to be a challenge. Then we go home in a short week against Stanford, then go to Eugene, Petersen said. We will find out, we will find out quickly what we have.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org Wade Boggs Red Sox Jersey . Brad Jacobs and his Sault Ste.

England coach Wayne Bennett insists Mal Meninga is wrong to think hes trying to undermine him and warned his critics he isnt going to change.In a remarkable press conference in Londons docklands, the veteran coach said he and Australia coach Meninga, who savaged him in a recent newspaper column, spoke this week and maintained hes done nothing wrong.He hasnt said anything to me, Bennett said.I saw him yesterday, spent a bit of time with him.Its a matter of perception. I didnt do that (undermine him). If thats what he believes then thats his prerogative.Bennett has come under fire in England for some taciturn post-match TV interviews and been accused of failing to promote the growth of the game.But the Brisbane coach said he couldnt care less about the criticism and claimed his job is not to be a marketer for the RFL.I started coaching in 1977 and they started bagging me then and nothings changed in 2016, he said.Ill tell you about promoting rugby league. You can talk to any marketing department. They dont want you to be goofing it off and talking it up when your team is getting beat every week because they wont sell aa ticket.dddddddddddd.My job is to get the best out of those players and give you the best entertainment I possibly can, Bennett said.What you say away from the game is immaterial.That has been my philosophy all my coaching life and I am not interested in cheap talk. I am not interested in getting out there thinking I can promote the game by something that I say.I know if the team ... play well and everyone enjoys what theyre doing, there wont be any shortage of fans or people interested.Bennett said after almost 40 years of coaching hes become immune to any barbs aimed at him and avoids reading about and watching the game to ensure he has a clear mind about his job.I dont read anything you (the media) write any more, he said.I havent for over a decade now. I watch television shows but when some rugby league comes on I turn it off.I see lots of guys doing interviews and they are wasting their time and space.It doesnt make any sense. They are just playing the game and I cant play the game. ' ' '
