Washington Huskies Dominate at Folsom Field in Football Showdown Against Colorado Buffaloes
In a commanding display of football, the Washington Huskies emerged victorious over the Colorado Buffaloes with a final score of 37-10. The Huskies now stand with an impressive record, while the Buffaloes' record took a hit after this game.
At Folsom Field, home to the Buffaloes, the Washington Huskies showcased their offensive and defensive might. The game's outset was challenging as the home team took an early lead in the first quarter with seven points. However, this would be one of their few moments to celebrate as the Huskies quickly turned things around.
The second quarter saw a shift in momentum when Washington scored ten points while keeping Colorado scoreless. This trend continued after halftime; by adding fourteen more points in the third quarter against three from Colorado, it became clear that Washington was taking control of the game. The fourth quarter sealed Colorado's fate as they failed to add any points while Washington piled on another thirteen.
The Huskies' offense was relentless throughout, accumulating a total of 414 yards with an average gain per play close to seven yards. Their rushing attack proved particularly effective as they amassed 254 yards on thirty-nine attempts and scored three touchdowns; one rush stood out—a spectacular fifty-seven-yard touchdown run that highlighted their ground dominance.
Through air attacks, Washington's passing game contributed significantly with eleven completions for 160 yards and one touchdown pass that connected for forty-three yards—the longest through air during this contest. Despite one interception thrown by Washington's quarterback, his overall performance yielded an impressive passer rating over 120.
Defensively, Washington was just as formidable; they sacked Colorado's quarterback four times for sixteen lost yards and intercepted him thrice—one resulting in a thirty-five-yard return touchdown which added insult to injury for Buffalo fans among the nearly forty-eight thousand attendees at Folsom Field.
Special teams also played their part—Washington blocked one kick and successfully made four extra point attempts out of five. Although field goal success was limited at thirty-three percent due to two missed attempts from beyond twenty-nine yards range.
