The Washington Huskies got three points in controversial fashion in Saturday’s game against Iowa, as they were given credit for a field goal on a kick that appeared to go over the uprights at best. Washington kicker Grady Gross lined up for a 34-yard field goal late in the first half, but his kick appeared to veer to the right. In spite of that, the officials ruled the kick good, much to the confusion of Iowa players and coaches. Iowa seems to think Washington’s FG is no good 👀 What do you think? pic.twitter.com/1u0Wd9aVLD — FOX College Football (@CFBONFOX) October…
