Washington finished its regular season 12-0 after winning a thrilling Apple Cup on Saturday over Washington State, 24-21.
The winning points came on a 42-yard field goal by Grady Gross.
The key play on the game-winning drive — as in gutsiest — happened when Washington faced a fourth-and-1 from its 29 with 1:07 left.
The Huskies went into trickeration mode and Romeo Odunze ran for 23 yards and a first down.
Washington QB Michael Penix Jr. didn’t look in great shape despite the victory. He was helped off the field.
The quarterback had taken a late hit on the game-winning drive that was flagged for roughing the passer.
Next up for the Huskies? A rematch with Oregon in the Pac-12 Championship Game.
