Why?

 

game line is 5 which is a good game and 56 points which means scoring

Just two teams I don't care about. I'm pulling for Michigan though, fock the West Coast 

[BiffTannen 956]

If states were people or jelly beans Michigan would be the black ones. 

Go Washington. 

[Voltaire 5,316]

I like Washington's run defense, or rather their lack thereof. It's a relief to know Donovan Edwards can do whatever he wants to them.

[Voltaire 5,316]

I worry Michigan's defense will get tired. They've got no time to rest since Washington's defense allows touchdowns too quickly.

I got ESPN out so not watching but see on stats he had two 40 some td runs. wow and I took Mich -5.

They decided they don't want to tackle him. Just make him run really hard so he has to catch his breathe.

Meanwhile, Blake Corum has also just now ripped them for a 59 yard run. They have shown little aptitude to stop the Michigan run game.

Thanks for the update and commentary.

Washington D stiffened up a bit. The their possession ended with a FG after Corum's long run and the next possession Michigan went 3-and-out with a drop.

Michigan with a great sack has Penix pinned deep now and they only rush four.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Washington gets a stop on 4th-and-3 at their own 38 when UM had an incomplete pass.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Washington going up tempo, moving the ball decently, and moving the chains.

[Voltaire 5,316]

pass interference Michigan.

1st and goal on the 8.

[Voltaire 5,316]

4th and goal at the 3 for Washington. They're going for it.

[Voltaire 5,316]

TD but flag.

[TommyGavin 790]

TD

[Voltaire 5,316]

Great drive for Washington to get back in the game, now down only 17-10.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Michigan receiver not going out of bounds may kill the half.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Washington starts the 2nd half with a turnover deep in their territory and Michigan marches steadily backwards with false start penalties.

[Voltaire 5,316]

... and settles for a FG 20-10.

Who are you talking to? People not watching the game? Thanks for the updates. Eye roll.

BHB .. and anyone else.

Michigan house here as my wife is an alum.  But a (very) small part of me wants to see UW keep it close, to represent the departing PAC-12.  But not too close, as I bet Mich -5.5.

Seven point game now (20-13), Michigan is letting them hang around, seems similar to Alabama last week.   

[Voltaire 5,316]

Washington run D has tightened up some but JJ just broke a pretty good one.

I saw that. 

[Voltaire 5,316]

It's far from the buttkicking it looked like in the first quarter. UM still up 7 but Washington is making a game of it.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Major penalty on Washington negates a 30 yard gain.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Expanding this lead to two scores would be timely.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Boom! Yes!

[Voltaire 5,316]

Washington forced to be aggressive.

Here's the game.

[Voltaire 5,316]

flags.... 

[Voltaire 5,316]

Schlurp my Penix, Washington.

[Voltaire 5,316]

Final score isn't going to indicate how close the game actually was.

[KSB2424 3,148]

Two best defenses in college football this year was Michigan and Florida St. 

 

[iam90sbaby 2,611]

Volty still thinks hes in Michigan 

[KSB2424 3,148]

Congratulations to an undefeated team winning the ESPN Invitational.  Very hard to do for a non SEC team.

No, I finally got my Florida teacher certification processed and moved down here to the Florida Panhandle December 28th. Today was my first day teaching 8th grade math.
