I think Michigan’s defense was the key. They were #1 in scoring defense and total defense this year. NCAA College Football FBS current team Stats | NCAA.com WWW.NCAA.COM Discover the current NCAA FBS Football leaders in every stats category, as well as historic leaders.

This is the key right here. I think DL has been trying to build his Oregon team like a SEC team by recruiting physical defensive players, big O-Linemen and talented skill players. I think the Ducks will be in a way better position to win in the B1G that Washington will.

Sorry. Had to do it.

Michigan held Washington 24 points below their season average.

Bottom line is Michigan had the best defense in the country and it showed.

I’m going to close this thread and start a post game thread.

If anything, it should end the talk of him being the real Heisman winner.

The number 1 defense in the nation will eventually make those happen.

Now it is reminding me of Oregon/Ohio State 2015.

Penix needs a quick strike

I bet Mario is loving Michigan’s overly stubborn commitment to the run.

It’s actually reminding me of Oregon/Auburn 2010.

I think Penix ties it up right here.

Michigan’s offense hasn’t moved the ball the last 4 drives. McCarthy can’t throw and the Fuskies have figured out a way to stop their running game. This doesn’t bode well for Big Blue.

Washington will probably go up-tempo the rest of the game. It’s their only chance to keep fresh Michigan D-Lineman off the field. Michigan just needs to keep everything in front of them like they did the first quarter. That last drive showed them that they can’t play man.

Michigan screwed themselves by not making Washington pay for their missed 4th down. I didn’t hate Michigan going for it on 4th down because a punt in the end zone wouldn’t have netted them much. I also thought Washington was due for a TD drive. However, I thought the Michigan pass was a bad play call.

He was building homes in Spokane when I used to live there.

I noticed they’ve been letting it go on both sides.

Washington has already given up well more than their season average of rushing YPG which is 137.

Looks like Michigan is content to let them have the short completions.

Just in case anybody wants to talk about the game. McAfee picked the fuskies and Corso picked the Wolverines, so it’s a wash on which team is cursed.

FYI. The opening of this video was a take the opening of Duck Dynasty.

Question. How many on this site thought Oregon was going to trounce Ohio State after their 2015 Rose Bowl massacre of FSU? I only ask because it seemed like everybody was picking the Ducks to win because of their offense. I’m seeing a lot of that reasoning for Washington winning this game.

My favorite of the season was the Colorado video, but this one is pretty awesome. I loved the discussion by the coaches over the headsets to give Bo his curtain call.
