Kudos to that young man for his assessment. Also the game was closer than the final score. There were several times Washington could have matched MI, even into the 4th quarter.

Is that article AI-produced gibberish, or was it written in a foreign language and then translated to English?

We listened to the game on AM radio.

Any thoughts on the quality of the officiating from anyone who watched...?

Yes indeed. I thought Harbaugh’s decision to go for it on 4th and 3 in the 2nd quarter (which failed) had opened the door for the Huskies to get back into it and possibly win. And Washington’s next TD didn’t change my mind. But Michigan’s D and Penix’s mistakes...and some help from penalties...sealed the deal.

Michigan defense repeated performance of what they did to Ohio state
Michigan offense was possessed looked like game was over after 15 minutes

This game was about the Washington defense not showing up and they left at the end of the third quarter

This game wasn’t about Penix. It was about the best team winning, and that’s what happened.

“Michael Penix Jr. on Washington’s championship loss to Michigan: ‘We beat ourselves’”

That’s totally gay. Admit it, you guys were outplayed.

Penix is deflated that he didn’t penetrate the end zone.

I saw receivers getting passes from Penix right into their hands and dropping the ball. The crowd was so loud that Penix’s clap signalling the hike was not heard and players moved when they thought they heard the clap. Lots of yardage was lost from illegal motion and offside.

I feel bad for Penix and Washington. The reason the passing stats were so poor compared to normal was that Michigan was grabbing Washington receiver’s jerseys on every play, slowing them down, but never called. As usual with Michigan and Harbaugh, they have to cheat to win.

I wish the Huskies would have played like that against my Ducks. Either time!

I'm an Alabama fan.

Seems like I've heard that story before.

Face reality. The bottom line is.......

Michigan won.

...the Huskies’ highest-ever Heisman finisher at No. 2 this season...


Right there is the problem. AA gave him the runner-up when clearly it should have gone to Bo Nix. And between Nix and Daniels, I’d say it was a deadheat on who shoulda won the award. This was my assessment after crunching all the stats. And I know I am a nobody.

Regards

The key was that the Michigan defense shout down Penix’s passing game. He’s a really good passer. More than 4600 yards this year. But he never came up against Michigan’s defense until the title game. Michigan’s defense was a defense for the ages.
