2024 Washington Huskies College Football Betting

Head coach Kalen DeBoer led the Washington Huskies to heights that were reminiscent of the legendary Don James era. In his two years as the Washington head coach, DeBoer led the Huskies to records of 11-2 and 14-1 with a berth in the 2023-24 national championship game. Washington finished with final national rankings of 8th and 2nd. However, DeBoer’s departure was as immediate as his success. With the retirement of Nick Saban, the college football coaching carousel went on a wild ride with Jedd Fisch arriving at Washington from Arizona, where he did a masterful job of rebuilding the Wildcats in short order. But with Washington moving to the Big Ten in 2024, Fisch has no time for grace.

2024 Washington Huskies Betting Preview

Although inexperienced, Washington has a talented team in place for new coach Jedd Fisch. Fisch’s coaching staff did an excellent job scheming to find success at Arizona, so if the Huskies were to win eight or nine games despite the offseason’s huge talent departure, it wouldn’t come as a surprise. Replacing all five starters on the offensive line, quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and key receivers Rome Odunze and Jalen McMillan will determine just how high Washington can climb in its debut Big Ten season.

New head coach Jedd Fisch and his staff have a lot of work to do to rebuild one of the nation’s top offenses after quarterback Michael Penix Jr., wideout Rome Odunze, the Joe Moore Award-winning offensive line, and every other starter departed for either the NFL Draft or the transfer portal. The staff did retain three key transfers: Mississippi State quarterback Will Rogers, who is among college football’s all-time leading passers; wideout Jeremiah Hunter, Cal’s top receiver for the last two seasons; and rising star tackle Drew Azzopardi, who came to UW from San Diego State.

All three should make a big impact in 2024 as Washington moves to the Big Ten, as will running back Jonah Coleman, who transferred from Arizona, and sophomore wide receiver Denzel Boston. The Huskies are also regaining the services of running back Cameron Davis, who missed all of last season with a knee injury, making the offensive line far and away the biggest question mark.

2024 Washington Huskies Football Schedule

Although the Washington Huskies have been out more than nationally, they have a rich football tradition. Much of it was built by the late great GOAT of Washington head coaches, Don James. Jim Owens is the other HC on the U-Dub Mt. Rushmore.

Washington has 17 conference championships and four division titles. Washington has two national titles (1960 and 1991).

College Football Hall of Fame members from Washington include Don James, Steve Emtman, and Lincoln Kennedy. And then Hugh McElhenny, Arnie Weinmeister, and Warren Moon are Huskies in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

In 2020, then-Washington Huskies rookie head coach Jimmy Lake didn't get much of a debut season. Lake led Washington to three wins in four games and a berth in the Pac-12 championship game. However, due to the pandemic, the Huskies had to forego their chance for the title.

It was a fitting end to a bizarre season for Washington. Lake had taken over for retired coach and Northwest legend Chris Peterson, but it was impossible to get a read on his coaching ability based on such an incomplete season.

For the 2021 season, Lake got his chance to show what he can do over a full schedule. And it was a disaster. Washington finished 4-8, and Lake failed to complete the season. He was fired for a multitude of reasons. In sum, he lost the support of big-money donors and regular fans.

Kalen DeBoer took over in 2022 and ripped off an 11-2 season with a final national ranking of 8th. In 2023, he took the Huskies to the national championship game. DeBoer has moved on to Alabama, making for an uncertain future at U-Dub.
