    I think we will have trouble running the ball but I don’t think we’ll really need to

    This is true.

    Only hope for Michigan is controlling the clock with their own running game which they will actually try to do.

    They’re not going to go Sarktarded and try to outshoot you.

    Harbaugh loves to run

    It's hard to judge how great they really are from their playoff game. Alabama was kind of a mess (so were they at times) and still had them in the 4th quarter.

    Really hoping that like Texas, their defense is overrated. As PGOS stated, if they haven't played better than a top 40 offense then you can't really say that their defense is better than what UW just carved up.

    What they did to Penn St worries me. UW will try to force McCarthy to beat them and I hope like everyone else this year, including Oregon/Utah/Texas, they will get spooked and think they have to throw it to keep up with the scoring.

    The weather forecast has worried as well, but hopefully it isn't a cold rain + a shit ton of wind like in PNW.

    I’m the most worried about Michigan’s O-line vs our D-line.

    On the other side of the ball, you come out just fucking slinging it. 2019 LSU offensive game plan.

    Why would weather matter in a closed stadium? Or is this a whoosh?
    It's a closed stadium?!

    Never bothered to look it up.

    Give us the 👑 then.

    The only matchup that matters is Michigan's d-line vs our O-line in pass protection. If Penix has time he will pick them apart and we win.

    I watched both games. From a small sample mich has better athletes on the DL where TX had a couple of space eaters. Might be easier to run between the tackles against mich… pass pro really more important though as I think a one dimensional offense can win this one against a shitty um offense.

    Watched them play in Nebraska this year. I didn't learn shit because the Huskers suck and the game put me to sleep. With that said, seems like a typical Harbaugh team. Run the ball all day if it's working. Dawgs need to sell out to stop that shit. Just look at Michigan's schedule and the offenses they've played... it is not impressive. You can say OSU is talented, but every game of theirs I have watched made me want to gouge my eyes out watching them on offense. Michigan has not played anyone close to UW's offense.

    If they rush for 230 at 5 yards/c we are fucked.

    Oregon ran for 204 at 5 yards a clip and still lost.
    Yup

    If UW scores in the first half it negates that
