By Marjorie | Posted on November 23, 2025 | https://qalamkaar1.blogspot.com/ The Pacific Northwest's pride took center stage under the iconic lights of the Rose Bowl last night, as the Washington Huskies football team faced off against the UCLA Bruins in a pivotal Big Ten matchup. What started as a defensive slugfest turned into a showcase of UW football resilience, with the Huskies securing a commanding 28-17 victory to improve to 8-3 on the season. For fans of Husky football, this Washington vs UCLA thriller was a reminder of why the Huskies are back in the national conversation – and why UCLA vs Washington rivalries never disappoint.Game Highlights: Huskies Football Defense Steals the ShowFrom the opening kickoff, it was clear this wasn't just another late-season tune-up. Washington Huskies head coach Jedd Fisch, drawing on his UCLA roots from his days as offensive coordinator, dialed up a game plan that neutralized the Bruins' struggling offense (ranked near the bottom of the Big Ten in scoring). The Huskies' secondary, led by cornerback Ephesians Prysock, forced two early turnovers, setting the tone for a night where Huskies football held UCLA to just 217 total yards.Key moments:
- Q1 Dominance: Jonah Coleman burst for a 15-yard touchdown run on the Huskies' second drive, putting UW up 7-0. UCLA answered with a field goal, but the UW football defense stiffened, sacking Bruins QB Nico Iamaleava twice in the red zone.
- Halftime Edge: Trailing 10-7 at the break? Not for long. Demond Williams Jr. connected with Giles Jackson for a 42-yard bomb in Q3, flipping the script and extending the lead to 17-10.
- Clutch Finish: In the fourth quarter, Makell Esteen's fourth-down breakup sealed the deal, paving the way for a late Coleman score. Final: Washington Huskies 28, UCLA 17.
