College GameDay crew refuses to pick Washington Huskies against Iowa Hawkeyes
By Ethan Lee
The Washington Huskies got a pretty solid win a season ago when they managed to take down the Michigan Wolverines. Few really believed in Washington’s chances of winning that game, but the Huskies were able to come out on top.
Now, this week, as the Huskies face off against a similarly styled opponent, Washington is getting doubted once more. Jedd Fisch and the Washington Husky football team have hit the road to face off against the Iowa Hawkeyes in Iowa City. And while this is a great opportunity for the Huskies to build some momentum after last week’s win, it doesn’t seem like folks are buying UW’s ability to win on the road.
Kirk Ferentz and the Iowa Hawkeyes got every single pick from the folks on ESPN’s College GameDay this week.

Now, it is worth noting that Washington beat the Michigan Wolverines after the entire College GameDay crew picked the Huskies to lose last week as well.

And it’s worth noting that Washington Husky football fans really enjoyed poking some fun at that. The Huskies got a big win despite folks doubting them. Proving people wrong can be a very, very enjoyable thing and it’s a ton of fun seeing your favorite team do just that.
Now the Huskies need to find a way to beat the Iowa Hawkeyes this weekend. This is going to be a tricky challenge for Fisch and UW. Iowa has a stout defense and an impressive rushing attack. Kaleb Johnson might be the best running back in the country. This is not going to be an easy win for Washington.
