college football under quarantine

Now for a less fun nugget for UW fans: The Huskies currently rank 44th in defensive SP+. The last national champion to rank outside the top 30 on D? Oklahoma. In *1950*.

The worst title defense since then: 2010 Auburn was 27th. And it took CAM NEWTON to overcome that.

the stats suggest it's a long shot. However, stats suggested Oregon was a long shot.

washington also has 3 legit NFL WRs and uses them heavily, which is not the case for most underdogs. so you can at least envision how washington *could* win. i've also heard that their OL is actually pretty legit. but none of that explains how washington's defense keeps its head above water

The OL seems to be good at pass pro. Alabama OL was supposed to be good too, however.

I’d say Washington’s path to victory is probably no different than TCU last year- Michigan makes a boodle of mistakes and QB/team has game of their lives.

washington settling for a FG from inside the 10 on its first drive feels like a death knell to me

welp

i thought harbaugh let washington hang around a bit when michigan should have been ending it...

mccarthy has looked shaky to put it mildly

but still every drive feels like an uphill climb for washington

would imagine the number of chances washington has to flip this game are dwindling…

well that woulda possibly done it but noooo

hard to swallow that holding call when every completion replay features a Michigan OL with a handful of jersey

Penix and WRs just didn't do it tonight, though

Washington's punter and right tackle are awful

Can't handle JJ's Gino Torretta smiles

we'll find out how they cheated soon enough

Jim thinks of himself as a storyteller, really

voodoo <3

this is pretty great, not gonna lie

With a hard work ethic Inshallah the U of M will return to its glory days.

imo Michigan has no chance in the next game against "Mr. Dream"

Nick Saban is retiring, according to ESPN

Definite changing of the guard with Carroll stepping down and more than likely Bill B. Leaving at NE.

not sure carroll 'stepped down' so much as he was pushed

anyway good for saban getting out at 72; perhaps he should run for president as the youthful option

Tommy Rees was a plant, sent to annoy Saban into retirement.

just learned that sports illustrated's 2023 sportsperson of the year was . . . deion sanders, coach of a college football team that finished 4-8 overall and last in the pac-12 at 1-8

a publication/brand that deserves to die, because wtaf
