Let me start by saying this is one of the Toughest games to cap, this could be a Great Competitive game or it can be a Blowout by either team.
I watched a season worth of games for both Michigan and Washington. Let me start with Washington.
Washington Oline is not only good, but the play calling helps them throw off defensive schemes they run alot of exotic plays that you just can not prepare for. In watching the films one thing is for certain the OLine is big and nasty they push around many Dlines and what sets them apart is they are smart and can handle stunts. Michigan runs many exotic stunts on D and are Big and Fast up front, as we saw in the Bama game, Bama just were not prepared and smart enough to handle what was thrown at them. The good thing for Wash is they pretty much got to see everything Mich can do on D and they will be prepared alot better then Bama was. Michigan will have no choice to Double Odunze (my opinion the best WR in CFB) with doing so and sending 5 or 6 with each blitz package it will open the door to quick slants to another stud in Polk who amassed over 1200 yds 9 tds and can beat you long and short. It will quickly force Michigan to adjust to quell the damage. When that is done Penix will now have time to open the long ball to Odunze and Polk. Penix with time would be doomsday for Michigan.
Michigan was downright unstoppable on the ground all year Corum plays like he is 6'1 220 when he in fact is alot smaller, but his quickness is unmatched. Wash is one of the Slowest Dlines in CFB disturbing how very slow. Corum will have a Career Day. McCarthy will have time to throw like he has all year, the plus is he does not make many mistakes, the negative he is not a big time passing QB one game this entire season with a 300 yd game, no big name WR. This game will be won on the ground for Michigan and no Turnovers.
As of now here is my play and Props i will be adding a side on Monday, I am leaning Washington.....
10U Michigan/Wash Over 10.5 1st Qtr
8U Polk Over 52.5 Rec Yds
7U Corum Over 105.5 Rush Yds
Good Luck!!!!
