Fox Sports' Joel Klatt predicts Washington to beat Michigan football in national championship game rematch between Wolverines and Huskies
As game day approaches for Michigan and Washington in a rematch of last year's national championship game, opinions and predictions seem to be trending in the direction of the Huskies.
"I think Will Rogers, the Washington quarterback, is a pretty good player," Klatt said. "If Jedd Fisch can protect him, I think they'll be able to throw the football, which USC and Minnesota did in the second half against Michigan. Will Rogers — 10 touchdowns, no interceptions ." "My question for Sherrone Moore and Kirk Campbell and this Michigan offense would be, how do we put Alex Orji in a better position to succeed," Klatt asked. "And listen, he beat USC, which is a good team, and they got the win over Minnesota. That's nothing to scoff at. However, there is an element of kind of square peg-round hole that's going on with this Michigan offense. Namely, I'd love to see them lean totally into Orji's ability to be dynamic as a runner.
