  The new boy on the block, UDub's Peterson, gets his load of expectations. 

One of the preseason themes for several years now has been, "This is the year UW is really going to break through."

This grantland article takes it a step further, proclaiming,
"Almost exactly as soon as Steve Sarkisian got the Huskies to a by-god breakthrough season ..."

That breakthrough season (2013) included a 5-4 conference record, a stunning advance over the previous conference seasons of 5-4 (2012), 5-4 (2011), and 5-4 (2010) [and 4-5 (2009), Sarkisian's first year.]

Now we'll see what kind of breakthroughs Petersen will produce.
