With an 8-0 record heading into the final month of the season, Kalen DeBoer’s team will have an absolute gauntlet waiting for them in the month of November. The month will start with a road trip to USC and this honestly will be the first slip-up of the season for the Huskies.

If you’re looking for a shootout to watch in Week 10, turn your sights to Los Angeles as the Trojans and Huskies might score 50 each.

This will be one of those fun games that everyone talks about for the rest of the year. Unfortunately, this one will go to Caleb Williams and the Trojans.

Prediction: Loss (8-1, 5-1)

Feeling down after its first loss of the year, Washington will have a chance to snap out of it and get back on track against the two-time reigning Pac-12 champs.

Utah comes to town in Week 11 with potential title hopes on the line while the Huskies are looking to bounce back and stay not only in the conference championship race but also the playoff race.

Cameron Rising is back and the Utah run game caused some problems at the end of the 2022 season. This is going to be a tough game for Washington, but this will be a statement win to bounce back and improve to 9-1 on the year.

Prediction: Win (9-1, 6-1)
