Game Thread: National Championship Game: The Michigan Wolverines vs the Washington Huskies

[Sharkonabicycle]

Why did UW defer? I don't understand what their thought process in that was. Their gamplan should've been to score immediately so they weren't playing from behind and put Michigan behind. When they deferred I immediately thought, WHAT!?

Cheese and rice
Huskies defense stay home???

Terrible start for the Huskies. They just let Michigan overpower them at the line of scrimmage and they didn’t do a good job tackling. Edwards with a long TD run, 7-0 Wolverines.

Good start for UM

 

[Golden Spur]

Let's see if the huskies can move it on Blue D

MIssed tackle there by UM DB on 3n5

Not good that Johnson is on the sideline hurting.

Michigan will probably run the ball at will versus Washington.

Texas was averaging like 7 yards/carry ....but just refused to deviate from their first 40 scripted plays.

Washington are awful versus the run, and Texas kept trying to pass the ball stupidly early on....because they never ever go away from the "40 play rule"

Sadly, Sark never owned up to that mistake.

Why would you ever script more than half of the football game? That's like sticking to the ol' bayonet charge after the other side brings out the artillery

Serious toughness shown by Johnson there. Huskies driving

 

[RegentDenali]

Go Dawgs!!!

 

[Xeliou66]

Huskies get a FG, 7-3 game now.

 

[LeroyOU12]

what happen with UW kicker lower jaw? looks like someone clocked him there

 

[The Q]

MIssed tackle there by UM DB on 3n5

Abysmal effort there cost them points

But with the way the clock has run, Michigan has to take that as a w

 

[PIBuckeye]

I don’t know…..
Not an encouraging opening drive for W.
If they don’t get a stop on Michigan I think we can just extrapolate this out to 28-12…..

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

And this is over... UW's D could be in hazmat suits and still catch the flu.

 

[PIBuckeye]

W is going to have to hope for turnovers or a ……..

Oh never mind

Game over

 

[Ojb81]

Welp. This was fun for a few minutes

 

[Xeliou66]

Huskies defense is just pathetic. They have no answer for Michigan’s rushing game, Edwards with another long TD run. Dude’s done nothing all year and now he’s running roughshod over Washington. They need to fucking wake up or this game will get out of hand.

 

[Golden Spur]

WA run D looking suspect

The Huskies probably consulted Pete Carroll prior to this game thinking it'd help...
