The unranked Washington Huskies defeated the No. 10 Michigan Wolverines 27-17 in a rematch of last season's national championship game, avenging their previous loss. The victory marks Washington's first signature win under coach Jedd Fisch and was secured in front of a sellout crowd at Husky Stadium. Despite penalties and two missed field goals that left six points on the field, the Huskies led 14-10 at halftime and made enough plays on both sides of the ball to secure the upset. Michigan turned to its third quarterback of the season, but the early 14-0 hole was too much to overcome. Washington's defense came up with two clutch turnovers in the fourth quarter, sealing the victory. Fans stormed the field after the game, celebrating the end of Michigan's 27-game Big Ten winning streak.
