No. 1 Ohio State Stifles Washington 24-6, Ends Huskies’ 22-Game Home Win Streak

Matt Patricia’s defense held a 55-point-per-game Washington to two field goals, extending a season with no red-zone touchdowns allowed.

Overview

  • The road win in Seattle moved Ohio State to 4-0 overall and 1-0 in Big Ten play while preserving its No. 1 AP ranking.
  • Caden Curry led a dominant front with 11 tackles, three sacks and a school single-game record for tackles for loss.
  • Julian Sayin, in his first road start, completed 22 of 28 passes for 208 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions.
  • A momentum-turning Jeremiah Smith touchdown came on a seldom-practiced call just before halftime after a defensive stop on a fake field goal.
  • Special teams contributed with kicker Jayden Fielding’s touchdown-saving tackle on the opening kickoff, and Ohio State now returns home to face Minnesota.
