Washington dominated Boise State in the LA Bowl on December 13, 2025, with a final score of 38-10. Demond Williams Jr. threw three of his four touchdown passes in the second quarter, and Washington had five interceptions. Denzel Boston made a 78-yard TD catch for Washington's first score, and Dezmen Roebuck, Raiden Vines-Bright, and Quentin Moore caught TD passes for the Huskies. Coach Jedd Fisch's Huskies had no players opt out of bowl participation, and it showed in their overwhelming performance against the Mountain West champion Broncos. Jonah Coleman rushed for 86 yards and a TD in his final game at Washington, while Boston had six catches for 125 yards. Washington scored four touchdowns in a stretch of less than 13 minutes spanning halftime, blowing it open. Maddux Madsen threw two interceptions in the first half for the Broncos, who dropped to 0-3 in the bowl games following their three straight conference titles. Max Cutforth threw three more interceptions, including two on consecutive plays, before finishing with 202 yards passing and a late TD. Boise State also lost the LA Bowl to UCLA in 2023, but made the College Football Playoff last season. Williams passed for 214 yards while throwing four TD passes in a bowl game for the second time. The Huskies broke out midway through the second when Boise State’s secondary left their best receiver running alone down the middle. Boston went untouched for his 11th receiving TD and the 20th of his career, the eighth Huskies receiver to hit that mark. Two snaps after Williams hit Roebuck for a 6-yard TD, Madsen threw an atrocious interception to Rahshawn Clark. Williams found Vines-Bright for the freshman's first TD with 1:17 left. On Washington's first drive after halftime, Moore fought off a defender to catch a 32-yarder for the tight end's second TD in four seasons. Cutforth threw an end-zone interception to Leroy Bryant in the fourth quarter, and 295-pound edge rusher Deshawn Lynch returned another interception 57 yards on Boise State's next snap. Takeaways Boise State: Neither Madsen nor Cutforth looked good, and their performances probably should raise questions about the Broncos' future under center. Washington: The Huskies played superbly under Fisch despite getting one week to prepare for a low-stakes game 1,150 miles from Seattle with 23,269 fans in attendance. Michigan's potential interest in Fisch also clearly wasn't a distraction to a team on the rise. Up next Boise State: The Broncos move to the revamped Pac-12 next season with expectations of contending for a title, although their year begins with a nonconference gauntlet against Oregon and Memphis. Washington: The Big Ten won't get any easier, but the Huskies are a fundamentally sound program. Fisch expects this group to contend for the College Football Playoff in 2026.
