What happened

ESPN RECAP

Johnson runs for 256 yards, 4 TDs in No. 5 Washington's high-octane 52-42 win over No. 24 USC

LOS ANGELES -- , Dillon Johnson had never rushed for more than 100 yards in any game in his four seasons of college football. The Washington tailback surpassed triple digits well before halftime Saturday night, and he kept running all the way to a landmark performance for his unbeaten Huskies. Johnson knew he was just one cog in an offensive machine that had several higher gears than its powerful Southern California counterpart. Johnson rushed for 256 yards and four touchdowns, Michael Penix Jr . passed for 256 yards and two scores and No. 5 Washington stayed perfect with a 52-42 victory over No. 24 USC. Devin Culp and Ja’Lynn Polk caught TD passes from Penix, who also rushed for a score while the Huskies (9-0, 6-0 Pac-12) won a high-octane thriller featuring two elite offenses and two deficient defenses.
