The No. 23 Washington Huskies entered Saturday’s game against Wisconsin with everything to play for. Already possessing a record of 6-2 (3-2 Big Ten) and a spot in the first edition of the 2025 College Football Playoff rankings, the Huskies needed just four more wins to have a chance at the Big Ten and national titles. It was going to be an uphill battle, but there was hope.
That hope drowned alongside the Huskies inside a soggy and snowy Camp Randall Stadium. Washington fell 13-10 to the Badgers (3-6, 1-5 Big Ten) after suffering several key injuries and failing to score in the second half.
