The Washington Huskies host the Iowa Hawkeyes on Friday night in a Big Ten Conference matchup. Yahoo College Football and Yahoo Sports both report that Washington head coach Jedd Fisch views the game as a benchmark to assess how the program has developed since losing 40-16 to Iowa two years ago.

During that 2024 game at Kinnick Stadium, Iowa rushed for 220 yards against the Washington defense, averaging almost six yards per carry, according to Yahoo College Football. It was the fourth Big Ten game of the tenure of Jedd Fisch in Seattle. [1][3]

Yahoo Sports reports that analyst Greg McElroy previewed the game while noting quarterback issues on both sides. The reports highlight an injury to Hank Brown alongside sacks taken by Washington quarterback Demond Williams Jr., who nonetheless holds the second-most total yards for the team. [1][2]
