Edwards' impressive performance included two touchdowns, with the first coming in the second half on an 8-yard run that capped off a 79-yard drive. The Huskies started both halves with a touchdown, taking a 6-0 lead in the first quarter on a 10-yard run by Joe Fagnano. However, a missed two-point conversion attempt kept the score narrow.

The second half saw the Huskies maintain their momentum, with Edwards' second touchdown making it 26-10 with 5.5 minutes remaining.
