In their first contest as Big Ten opponents, Washington beat Michigan, avenging last season's loss to the Wolverines in the College Football Playoff national championship game. The Huskies knocked off No. 10 Michigan 27-17 inside Husky Stadium.

And it didn't take long for Huskies fans to celebrate the top-10 win, with fans storming the field in Seattle.

Washington held off a surge by Michigan and quarterback Jack Tuttle, who came in during the second quarter after starter Alex Orji was benched to lead a 17-0 scoring run. Washington outscored Michigan 13-0 in the fourth quarter, however, with key plays coming from safety Kamren Fabiculanan and a 32-yard field goal from kicker Grady Gross.

The Huskies' upset win over No. 10 Michigan was one of several major upsets in college football on Saturday by unranked teams, as Vanderbilt took down No. 2 Alabama and Minnesota took down No. 15 USC just to name two.

Next up for Washington (4-2, 2-1 in Big Ten) will be a trip to Kinnick Stadium to face Iowa next Saturday, Oct. 12 at noon ET. Meanwhile, Michigan (4-2, 2-1) will spend the next week dwelling on its loss as the Wolverines are on bye in Week 7.
