Ready for Big Ten football?
Posted on Sep 23, 2025 | 04:25pm
It's still early-ish in the college football season, but it's not too early for a Big Ten matchup to have huge implications. So, get ready: Washington is hosting No. 1 Ohio State on Saturday at Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium with national-championship aspirations potentially on the line.
The visiting Ohio State Buckeyes (3-0) are coming off a bye. The defending national champs have been the top-ranked school in the AP Top 25 poll since taking down the then-No. 1 Texas Longhorns in Week 1. Head coach Ryan Day's squad heads into the weekend looking to stay perfect – and looking to stay in the pole position for the College Football Playoff tournament.
Head coach Jedd Fisch and Washington, meanwhile, are looking to crack the Top 25 conversation. A week after outlasting their Apple Cup rivals Washington State, 59-24, the unbeaten, yet unranked Washington Huskies (3-0) will be looking for respect – and a signature win.
Saturday's showdown will be the first conference challenge for both Big Ten schools.
Read on for everything you need to know about the Ohio State-Washington game. Our playbook for the Week 5 college football battle includes odds, a look at the key players, plus all the info you need to catch the CBS Sports presentation live. Let's get this kicked off now.
