The Washington Huskies conquered the Northwestern Wildcats 24-5 on September 21, 2024, in their first Big Ten victory. Washington's offense and defense shone brightly, with quarterback Will Rogers displaying impressive accuracy. Wide receiver Denzel Boston was his primary target, securing two touchdown passes, including a stunning 46-yard score.
