SEATTLE – Will Rogers threw for 271 yards and two touchdowns in the first half, Jonah Coleman’s 1-yard TD with 6:22 left gave Washington the lead and the Huskies beat No. 10 Michigan 27-17 in a rematch Saturday night Last season’s College Football Playoff championship game.

This time it was far more competitive than that night in Houston last January when Michigan won its first national title since 1997. It also came to a different conclusion, as the Huskies (4-2, 2-1 Big Ten) used an offensive burst in the first half and two key turnovers in the fourth quarter to defeat the Wolverines.

The loss ended Michigan’s 24-game Big Ten regular-season winning streak.

Rogers threw touchdowns of 3 yards to Denzel Boston and 16 yards to Giles Jackson as the Huskies built a 14-0 lead early in the second quarter. That lead evaporated as Michigan (4-2, 2-1) finally found an offensive rhythm and backed up quarterback Jack Tuttle after Alex Orji was ineffective early in the game.

But Tuttle committed two turnovers in the final 10 minutes, which Washington capitalized on.

Tuttle fumbled with 8:02 left after being hit by Tunuufi, and Logan Sagapolu recovered it at the Michigan 32. Coleman rumbled 27 yards on the first play and scored from the 1 three plays later, giving Washington a 24- 17 lead.

On Michigan’s next possession, Tuttle was intercepted by Kamren Fabiculanan with 3:24 left, one of the few returners for Washington from the team that lost in January. The Huskies received a crucial pass interference call against Michigan and Grady Gross hit a 32-yard field goal with 1:06 left to put the finishing touches on the win.

Rogers completed 21 of 31 passes and threw his first interception in more than a calendar year early in the fourth quarter. Rogers had completed 269 consecutive pass attempts without a pick before being intercepted by Ernest Hausman.

Coleman added 80 yards rushing.

Donovan Edwards rushed for 95 yards and his 39-yard TD run was reminiscent of his two long sprints in the championship against Washington. But leading rusher Kaleel Mullings was held in check, finishing with just 49 yards on 14 carries.

The Wolverines were nowhere to be found with Orji at quarterback and were outrebounded 163-47 midway through the second quarter when Tuttle took over. He completed just 10 of 18 passes for 98 yards, but threw an 8-yard TD pass to Colston Loveland on the first drive of the second half to give Michigan a 17-14 lead.

The snack bar

Michigan: Is Tuttle finally the answer at quarterback for Michigan? The mere threat of the downfield passing game with the grad transfer under center opened up offense for the Wolverines, but the two turnovers in the fourth quarter cannot be minimized.

Washington: Clock management continues to be an issue for the Huskies. It appeared late in the loss to rival Washington State in the Apple Cup and reappeared late in the first half against Michigan. Washington handled the final seconds of the first half poorly, resulting in a blocked field goal.
