Washington hosts Eastern Washington in a Week 3 football game scheduled for Saturday. The Huskies enter with a 2-0 record and are favored by 42.5 points, which some analysts view as excessive given their offensive struggles so far this season. This matchup is critical for Washington's offense, which has faced injuries and disappointing performances. Eastern Washington has a strong passing attack led by quarterback Nate Bell but has also been hindered by injuries to key players.
