Holiday Bowl (December 27): Washington State QB Luke Falk

Mike Leech’s latest quarterback in a bowl game? Count me in! Leech has a reputation for crafting video game-like offenses whose quarterbacks posts monster numbers. Luke Falk falls right into that mold. This season Falk threw for 4,202 yards and threw 37 touchdowns.

But it’s not just Falk that makes this offense tick. Washington averaged 477.2 yards of offense this season thanks to their running backs combining for 1,522 rushing yards.

Washington State also had eight receivers averaging more than 10 yards per catch so Falk has lots of big-play options. Highlighting those options are Gabe Marks, Tavares Martin Jr. and River Cracraft who all had more than 700 yards receiving so far this season.
