The Huskies have won their last five games by one score and I expect this game to be no different.

Washington boasts a formidable aerial attack, contrasting with Michigan's ground-centric offense. However, Washington's defensive struggle against the run might pose a challenge against Michigan's robust ground game. Nonetheless, Michigan's sturdy defense could create obstacles for Washington's offensive prowess, setting the stage for a thrilling and closely contested matchup.
