Washington Football Has Breakout Potential in 2026

Washington football has one of the most exciting quarterbacks in the Big Ten, but the Huskies still have to prove they can beat the league’s heavyweights. Jedd Fisch enters year three with real momentum, but 2026 is about whether Washington can move from dangerous to legitimate contender. In this Washington Huskies 2026 college football preview, we break down why Demond Williams Jr. gives the offense major upside after throwing for 3,057 yards and 25 touchdowns. Washington also returns four offensive line starters, including John Mills, Landon Hatchett, and Drew Azzopardi, while adding five-star left tackle Kodi Greene. But there are real questions. The Huskies must replace major production from Denzel Boston, Jonah Coleman, Carver Willis, Adam Mohammed, and Raiden Vines-Bright. The defense is also being retooled under Ryan Walters with portal additions like DeSean Watts, Darin Conley, Kai McClendon, and Emmanuel Karnley. We also discuss the linebacker group led by Jacob Manu, Xe’ree Alexander, and Zaydrius Rainey-Sale, plus a 2026 schedule that includes USC, Iowa, Penn State, Indiana, Nebraska, Michigan State, and Oregon. Washington has a clear path to a strong season, but the biggest question is whether the Huskies can finally push back against the top of the Big Ten.
