Top 10 Most Compelling Husky Plays of the Season: No. 4

Teams work and work to stop the University of Washington football team and then something happens like what took place at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

It's back-breaking stuff. Demoralizing beyond belief. Nothing short of unfair.

Leading 14-7 entering the second quarter, USC seemingly had the upper hand with the Huskies by putting them in a third-and-18 situation, one complicated by a bizarre personal foul call meted out to UW offensive tackle Troy Fautanu. 

"It was right after we got the crazy call with Troy with his helmet off trying to kill people," Husky tight end Devin Culp said.

Yet the guys who snuffed the life out of the Trojans on this play were Michael Penix Jr. and Culp,

They did this with a pure playground pitch and catch that resulted in Culp somehow coming down with a sensational 22-yard touchdown grab.

In a season full of heroic, heart-felt and sometimes weird moments, we count down in reverse order the 10 most memorable plays for Kalen DeBoer's 13-0 UW team.

At No. 4 is Culp's scoring catch with a high degree of difficulty in the Huskies' 52-42 victory over USC, improvisation at its best by the 6-foot-4, 237-pound senior from Spokane.

Once the ball was snapped, Culp saw Penix get into trouble right away and begin to scramble while the tight end ran into the end zone and tried to get open.

"I never waved anyone down before or anything like that, but I didn't feel or see anyone right by me," Culp said. "I was like Mike can you throw it? Like throw it?"

Penix held onto the football under heavy rush until he ran up against the sideline and Culp had drifted into the left corner of the end zone, and then he let it fly.
