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

We were roommates the last time UW won the national championship.

He went into that '92 Rose Bowl truly believing that Michigan was going to dominate the Huskies. He was shocked when Washington overpowered Michigan.

We laughed at the irony that here we are again, Washington vs. Michigan with the natty on the line.

I asked him to put aside all the posturing and tell me what he really thinks of Monday's game.

He said UW will need to score on every possession, they can't even afford one three-and-out.

He said Harbaugh is going to pound the football, slow the game down, and keep the UW offense off the field. He feels very confident because "Washington's run defense is HORRIBLE."

He predicted Michigan 31, Washington 20.

31 to 20 is 9 scores. If Harbaugh kills the clock and keeps the Huskies off the field the score will look like an Iowa game

And Michigan ain't playing Iowa

Another Michigan fan that thinks UW offense is dependent on lots of possessions and going fast... yawn...

I do think his comments about UW's run defense are somewhat valid. I did tell him that Tuli is healthy now and that we greatly improved in November. I also said DeBoer & Co. will have some wrinkles on defense for sure

UWs defense isn't great but its not so bad its can't defend a one dimensional team. Oregon and UT were much more difficult to defend because they can attack with very athletic skill guys in multiple ways.

UM RB Corum isn't better than many of the RBs UW has faced this year... he has worse stats (tot and per carry) than DJ

UM leading WR Roman Wilson is no Romaine Odunzoe and he would be lucky to not be behind Germ-Bern on the UW depth chart.

The only scary thing about the UM offense is that if UW doesn't commit to stopping the run they will just run forever. If WE? had Kwiatkowski I would be worried about UW insisting on lining up in some soft retard defense and watching them run all game.

Oregon > UT > Michigan

But coaching matters so Michigan probably wont beat themselves unless they seppuku themselves on special teams again or get behind early and start trying to throw the ball, and even then they might just keep running.

That implies Michigan is going to score on every possession.

They won't.

AOG

Everybody over 5 years old knows Michigan will try to run the damn ball and the clock. Why not? So the defense will stack the box, and it comes down to who makes the plays. If UM gets behind by more than a score, we? will likely win since ground attacks are so slow.

IslandDawg

I think this is the first game in a long time where we will not let the team back in it.
We will take and maintain 10 or 14 point lead until the end.

It seems like we're due to get some good luck, pick 6 or strip 6, and maybe even hit one of those "knockout" shots that Grubb stupidly pursues, via flea-flicker or whatever the fuck.

Just put a team away for once.

If Rikki is predicting a Meee-she-gan win, I like our? chances!

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.

Same fundamental misunderstanding that UW offense isn't "hurry up" speed speed speed.

Uw's offense grinds out drives all the time. They did it against Tejas mighty Sweat D.

We talked right before kickoff of the Michigan State game, which was the first time in 30 years. He told me how Michigan State was gonna put a whoopin on the sorry ass Poodles.

Didn't hear from him again until he left me a message two days ago.

I remember when Christmas came when we were roommates. I was 20 years old. It didn't even occur to me that we were going to get each other presents. He set out out a wrapped gift, which ended up being a nice Michigan sweatshirt. I quietly rushed out Christmas eve or morning to 7-11 and bought him a bunch of Chips-Ahoy.
