After the upset of top-ranked Miami, the Michigan Wolverines of coach Bo Schembechler were 1-0 & ranked 3rd nationally as they welcomed the 16th ranked, 1-0 Washington Huskies of coach Don James. Washington featured All-Pac 10 players DT Ron Holmes, LB Tim Meamber, & LB Fred Small as well as QB Hugh Millen & RB Jacque Robinson. Washington used the same formula to defeat Michigan as the Wolverines had used against Miami. The Huskies intercepted 3 passes of Michigan QB Jim Harbaugh & caused 2 fumbles in the 20-11 victory. Washington got the only points of the 1st quarter when PK Jeff Jaeger hit a 25-yard field goal. Michigan tied the game at 3-3 in the 2nd quarter when PK Bob Bergeron hit a 52-yard field goal. The Huskies took the lead for good after LB Joe Kelly intercepted Harbaugh at the Wolverines' 25-yard line. Washington's RB Rick Fenney finished the short drive with a 2-yard touchdown run giving Washington a 10-3 lead which they held through the half. On the Huskies first possession of the 2nd half, Millen connected WR Mark Pattison who ran untouched 73 yards into the end zone for a 17-3 advantage. Jaeger’s 38-yard field goal accounted for the only other points of the 3rd quarter. Michigan’s only touchdown came in the 4th quarter when Harbaugh hit WR Vince Bean for a 7-yard touchdown pass but the Wolverines were not able to successfully attack the Washington defense. Millen finished with 167 yards passing with a touchdown completing 13 of 16 passes while Harbaugh threw for 183 yards with a touchdown but 3 interceptions. The Wolverines finished the season 6-6 while the Huskies finished 11-1 & ranked 2nd nationally. Michigan would play for The Belt again in 2003.
