American college football season
The 1994 Washington Huskies football team was an American football team that represented the University of Washington during the 1994 NCAA Division I-A football season . In its second season under head coach Jim Lambright , the team compiled a 7–4 record, finished in fourth place in the Pacific-10 Conference , and outscored its opponents by a combined total of 295 to 233.[1]
In the third game, the Huskies upset Miami at the Orange Bowl , breaking the Hurricanes' home winning streak at 58 games.[2] Midway through the season, Washington was 5–1 and ranked ninth, but lost three of the final five games. All four losses were on the road to Pac-10 opponents. Due to earlier sanctions, the Huskies were ineligible for a bowl as they were serving the second year of a two year bowl ban.
For the second consecutive year, Napoleon Kaufman was selected as the team's most valuable player. Kaufman, Mark Bruener , David Killpatrick, and Donovan Schmidt were the team captains.
