Player of the Game

Chris Polk rushed for four touchdowns and caught a pass for score, and also became the first in school history to have at least 100 yards rushing and receiving in the same game. Polk finished with 144 yards rushing on 34 carries and four catches for 100 yards.

Turning Point

With Washington holding a 35-31 lead midway through the fourth quarter and Arizona past midfield, Wildcats receiver Juron Criner fumbled, UW recovered and then capitalized by scoring the winning touchdown.

Key Stats

The Huskies forced four turnovers, which more than negated the three turnovers UW had. Washington outrushed Arizona 179 yards to 36.

By the Numbers

23 Keith Price threw his 23rd touchdown pass of the season. He is tied for fourth with Baylor's Robert Griffin III. Houston's Case Keenum (32 touchdowns), Clemson's Tajh Boyd (25) and Boise State's Kellen Moore (24) have more.

1,016 yards rushing this season for Chris Polk. Polk joins Napoleon Kaufman as the only Huskies to rush for more than 1,000 yards in three different seasons.

5-2 Washington is 5-2 this season when Polk rushes for more than 100 yards. Since the 1947 season, Washington is 178-54-3 when a Husky rushes for at least 100 yards in a game.

2,934 Arizona quarterback Nick Foles needs 66 yards to reach 3,000 yards this season. He threw for 3,191 in 2010.

18 Polk rushed for at least 100 yards for the 18th time in his career, a school record, surpassing Kaufman.
