The captains for today’s game were: Trey Adams, Myles Bryant, Aaron Fuller and Nick Harris.

Today’s game was just the fifth time both teams have been ranked in a game at Husky Stadium since the remodel in 2013. UW is 4-1 in those matchups.

The Huskies have won five-straight games against ranked foes at Husky Stadium. Since the stadium was remodeled in 2013, the Huskies are 6-5 against ranked teams at home.

Today’s win was the Huskies first at home against USC since Sept. 19, 2009 when they beat the No. 3 Trojans, 16-13, on a last-second field goal by Erik Folk. USC won the 2016 and 2012 games at Husky Stadium.

Through five games, the Huskies have now outscored opponents 77-3 in the first quarter.

For the season the Huskies have nine takeaways and have scored six touchdowns and a field goal. The turnovers that did not result in a score were at the end of games with the Huskies eventually taking a knee. On the flip side, the Huskies have turned the ball over five times which has resulted in just one score by the opponent (touchdown BYU).

Salvon Ahmed’s 89-yard TD run in the third quarter was the fifth-longest run from scrimmage in UW history. It’s the longest since Napoleon Kaufman went 91 yards against San Jose State on Oct. 8, 1994. Complete list on page 100 of the UW record book.

Ahmed established a new career high with 153 rushing yards. It’s the second time he has surpassed 100 yards rushing this season and for his career (also vs. Cal). It’s also the most by a Husky rusher this season.

The first quarter rushing touchdown by Richard Newton was his sixth on the ground (seventh overall) in five games. For perspective, Bishop Sankey rushed for seven TD’s in the first five games of 2013, while Hugh McElhenny (1950) and Myles Gaskin (2017) rushed for six TD’s over the first five games of their best seasons.

The Huskies’ fumble RECOVERY for a touchdown by Andre Baccellia was UW’s first such play since Sept. 20, 2003 and Terry “Tank” Johnson against Idaho.

Cameron Williams notched his second and third career interceptions and Elijah Molden made his first career pick. Williams is the first Husky true freshman with two picks in the same game since Taylor Rapp had two in the 2016 Pac-12 Championship game vs. Colorado.

Hunter Bryant is up to seventh on the Huskies’ top-10 list for career receiving yards by a tight end with 903. He has 56 receptions and needs one more to crack the top-10 list for tight ends.

With six receptions, Aaron Fuller now has 127 in his career. He needs 11 more to break into UW’s top-10 list.

Trent McDuffie led the Huskies’ defense with nine tackles. It’s the fourth time in five games a DB has led the team in stops.

Peyton Henry improved to 9-for-9 in field goal attempts on the season with his 28- and 35-yard conversions.

The longest pass play by USC in the first half was nine yards, Matt Fink to Michael Pittman.

Julius Irvin made his 2019 debut, entering the game on special teams in the third quarter.

The following true freshmen played in their fifth games this season: Tim Horn, Trent McDuffie, Puka Nacua and Cameron Williams. Asa Turner and Laiatu Latu each played in their fourth games.
