In the third game, the Huskies upset
Miami at the
Orange Bowl, breaking the Hurricanes' home winning streak at 58 games.[2] Midway through the season, Washington was 5–1 and ranked ninth, but lost three of the final five games. All four losses were on the road to Pac-10 opponents. Due to earlier sanctions, the Huskies were ineligible for a bowl as they were serving the second year of a two year bowl ban.
For the second consecutive year,
Napoleon Kaufman was selected as the team's most valuable player. Kaufman,
Mark Bruener, David Killpatrick, and Donovan Schmidt were the team captains.
