Editor's note: I wasn't at practice Friday night because of a prior engagement. Most of this information about the Huskies' two-hour practice came from Scott Johnson, of the Everett Herald:
Johri Fogerson (ankle) returned to action and broke a 60-yard run in an 11-on-11 drill. Not to be outdone, Chris Polk busted a 30-yard touchdown run, stiff-arming David Batts at the 15.
Starting quarterback Jake Locker was 6-of-12 for 79 yards with an interception. He was sacked three times.
Backup offensive tackle Skyler Fancher limped off the field. It appeared to be a right ankle injury.
Everybody, including offensive line coaches throughout the Pacific-10 Conference, is aware of what Daniel Te'o-Nesheim brings to the University of Washington's defensive-end position.
He's totaled 161/2 sacks the past two season on a defense that didn't get as many opportunities to come after the quarterback as, say, Southern California or Oregon State because the Huskies trailed big often times in the second half.
So, who is Te'o-Nesheim's partner in crime on the other side? It's Darrion Jones, who, like Te'o-Nesheim, is a fifth-year senior, and one of the few remaining players from former coach Tyrone Willingham's first recruiting class in 2005.
