UW holds on for 27-23 victory over Stanford

After falling behind 21-0 at halftime, Stanford had a chance to win in the final seconds of the fourth quarter.

With no time left on the clock and the Cardinal trailing Washington by four points, K.J. Costello launched a ball to the end zone. But it was Husky defensive back Taylor Rapp who came down with the ball, sealing a 27-23 UW victory.

The Huskies seemed to be running away with the game early. For the first time this season, they scored a touchdown on their first three offensive possessions. They scored more points in the first quarter than they did in the entire game against Cal last week.
