Defense Shines as QB Battle Intensifies | Spokane News
Description
Washington State’s defense is lighting up fall camp with explosive energy, snagging three interceptions in eleven-on-eleven drills — one each from the three QBs battling for the starting job. The defensive line is pressuring quarterbacks into quick decisions while the secondary shines, led by a strong safety group coached by veteran Greg Burns. Transfers Jaylen Thomas and Jeremiah Bernard are stepping into first-team roles, with Thomas pulling off a highlight-reel pick and Bernard making a diving breakup. Meanwhile, the QB race remains wide open: Julian Dugger, Owen Eshleman, and Caden Pinnick all flashed moments of brilliance — though Pinnick’s recent interception looms over his otherwise solid performance. First-team receiver Darrius Clemons, also a transfer, continues to dominate targets, alongside Tony Freeman and Daniel Blood making tough catches. With the coaching staff watching closely, the battle for the starting QB spot is far from decided — and the defense’s dominance only makes it hotter.
