The Washington Huskies quietly put together a strong 2025 season. While Indiana 's resurgence, led by Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza , stole headlines in the Big Ten, the Huskies accumulated a 9-4 record. The Huskies turned that success into a dominant 38-10 win vs. the Boise State Broncos in the LA Bowl. A big reason for Washington 's winning ways is running back Jonah Coleman . Unfortunately for the Huskies, the senior will not be returning in 2026 as he eyes the next step in his football career.
