00:00So, the next game we're going to look at here is the one where oddsmakers set a line and
00:08fans jump on one team in particular here and they're all jumping on Michigan this week
00:13plus two and a half at Washington.
00:15But you know, I got to tell you, Bill, this is just not understanding the dynamic of what
00:20the Wolverines are this season.
00:22I mean, this is a team that's going to, the game is going to come down in every game that
00:27they play right down to the end.
00:29And that's very dangerous.
00:30And for me, that's why I don't think Michigan is going to be in the mix for the championship
00:34at the end of the season.
00:35But their defense is undeniable.
00:37They're going to have to completely stop Washington on the road to win.
00:41I don't see any other way that they get it done.
00:44The bubble could burst this week.
00:46If you took one of those old projectors and overlaid the depth chart on these two teams
00:51from last year's title game to this year's game, you would scratch your head and be like,
00:55where are all these guys at?
00:57And that's what makes it a coin flip to me in some ways.
00:59Washington hasn't been able to put it together.
01:01You look at their total stat, you're like, man, they have a ton of yards.
01:04They're good defense.
01:05Why are they not winning games?
01:07Penalties have crushed them.
01:09Terrible red zone offense has crushed them.
01:10They've had to settle for field goals.
01:12Michigan, we know what they're going to try to do here.
01:14They're going to try to run the football, build an early lead, rest on the defense.
01:18Looks like Will Johnson will be back.
01:20But that second half of that Minnesota game concerns me.
01:23Washington's going to go tempo here.
01:25It's a true coin flip.
01:26I don't blame bettors for going with Washington in this spot at all.
01:31I'm still going to take Michigan.
01:32I think the running game controls the game.
01:34But like you said, this will come down possibly to a late field goal.
01:38Michigan's kicker, Veda, four field goals of 50 yards or more.
01:42Can he make it in the clutch?
