The Washington Huskies are gearing up for one of their toughest challenges of the season as they travel to Columbus to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes, one of the top teams in both the Big Ten and the nation. This high-stakes matchup will put Washington’s resilience to the test, as they’ll need an exceptional performance—and perhaps a bit of luck to pull off an upset.
Unfortunately, the Huskies enter this game in a rough patch. They are desperate to turn things around after back-to-back losses, including a 24-point blowout against Iowa and a narrow three-point heartbreaker against Indiana. However, going up against a dominant Ohio State squad makes bouncing back a serious challenge.
