The No. 5-ranked Washington Huskies have secured their place in the Pac-12 Championship game for the first time since 2019, maintaining an undefeated record of 11-0. This achievement was confirmed following their victory over the No. 10-ranked Oregon State in a game that ended with a score of 22-20. The match, which took place in nearly constant rain, was the final Pac-12 game at Reser Stadium.
Key plays that contributed to the Huskies' victory included a 12-yard touchdown pass by Michael Penix Jr. to Rome Odunze, and a 3-yard touchdown rush by Damien Martinez. The game also saw turnovers from both teams, with fumbles recovered by A. Arnold and M. Esteen. Additionally, D. Uiagalelei's passes were intercepted twice by J. Muhammad.
Despite the challenging weather conditions, Rome Odunze managed to catch seven passes for 106 yards, contributing two touchdowns for the Huskies. Michael Penix Jr. also threw for two touchdowns and ran for another, further solidifying the Huskies' victory.
The Huskies' opponent in the conference championship is yet to be determined, with the possibilities being either Oregon or Arizona.

Washington is set to depart for the Big Ten next season, along with Oregon, USC, and UCLA.
