Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Talked this morning with my first roommate Rikki from Flint, Michigan

    How many defensive players were on the team that lost to Michigan in 2021? I have a hunch those guys are extra motivated to stop them on Monday. Yes they may not completely shut down their run game, but that’s worth something to the doog in me.

    Actually this might turn out to be a classic, and final, Big-10 grind vs PAC-12 speed game

    Many Michigan fans see a double digit victory. Incredible. Deboer has never lost by double digits.

    One of his early losses was by nearly 50. But that might be the only one.

    I was assuming @jecornel meant at FBS level or at UW.

    But yeah, he lost a championship game to Carroll college 55-0

    Carroll college (Helena Montana) KDB credits for teaching him what it takes to win the big game.

    We owe the montanans everything. Molding KDB and helping get Jimmy fired.

    I actually think UW CAN slow Michigan’s run game down, but the safeties and corners will have to get into the action.

    I do fear the play action shots over the top that will be there for the taking if Michigan can hit them.

    I have a hard time seeing Michigan shutting UW’s offense down enough to win.

    As with most games UW has played the last half of the season, it’s all about how many scoreless drives the opponent has. It doesn’t take many for UW to win.

    Disagree. Michigan is just as fast as UW and UW is just as powerful as Michigan.

    The old stereotypes don’t apply this time.

    well, true, but there is still an emphasis on power vs speed, but it's not as wide as it was.
