Can Michigan Justify Top-10 Ranking?
Michigan is back in the top-10 in the college football rankings after a 4-1 overall start and a 2-0 start to their play in the Big Ten. Michigan was embarrassed in their biggest test of the season so far against the Texas Longhorns. But consecutive wins against USC and Minnesota after that loss have moved them back up the rankings. Here, Michigan needs to find a way to move the ball through the air to avoid a loss on the road against a Washington team that has dropped two of its last three games, as quarterback Alex Orji has failed to reach 100 passing yards in two straight games for the Wolverines.
Washington Hopes to Solve Michigan Defense
The Washington Huskies are 3-2 this season and 1-1 in conference play in their first season in the Big Ten. The Huskies have dropped two of their last three games, falling against Rutgers and Washington State while beating Northwestern. This week, the Huskies are back at home and looking to exact revenge on Michigan after the Wolverines beat the Huskies in last year's national championship game. Both teams look very different from the teams that made the title game a season ago, but Washington's defense will need to figure out how to stop the run to win this game, something they could not do in the natty against Michigan last season.
Michigan vs Washington Betting Pick
Going into Michigan vs Washington, our expectation is that the defenses will rule the day in this contest. Michigan's quarterback issues will prevent them from doing too much offensively, while the Michigan defense should continue to play at an elite level. Look for this game to stay under the total as these Big Ten squads play a tightly-contested defensive struggle in Seattle.
