  "account": "After a thrilling 17-10 victory over Nebraska, Washington's head coach Jedd Fisch addressed the media regarding his team's remarkable comeback. The Huskers found themselves trailing by 7 points in the fourth quarter, but managed to overcome a tough fourth-quarter performance from Nebraska. Despite Nebraska's 387 yards of offense, the Huskers' defense held firm, allowing only 267 total yards and 32 rushing yards.\n\nFisch highlighted the team's collective effort in securing the win, crediting the defense for their strong performance and the offensive unit for their determination. He emphasized the importance of holding Nebraska under 13 points, a strategy that proved successful in their recent road wins. Fisch also addressed quarterback evaluation, stating that Demond Williams earned the right to start in the fourth quarter due to his impressive performance and recovery from injury. He praised Williams' ability to make plays with his feet, which proved crucial in the game.\n\nIn terms of special teams, Fisch was impressed with the team's field position play calling, which led to successful punting and prevented Nebraska from capitalizing on critical opportunities. Nebraska will face off against Illinois this Friday, with a scheduled kickoff at 7 p.m. on Fox.",
