Game Analysis
Lean – WASHINGTON (-1.5) 24 Michigan 18
It’s obvious that Washington is a better offensive team than Michigan, as the Huskies are averaging 474 yards per game at 7.4 yards per play and rate at 1.4 yppl better than average after accounting for the defensive units they’ve faced while the Wolverines are averaging 320 yards at 5.4 yppl and have been just average offensively.
What you might find surprising is that Washington has also been better on defense so far this season. Michigan has allowed 319 yards per game at 4.8 yppl while rating at 1.0 yppl better than average but the Huskies defense has been 1.3 yppl better than average while yielding just 251 yards and 11 points per game at 4.1 yppl (to teams that would average 5.4 yppl against an average defense).
Washington’s two losses, to Washington State and Rutgers, were games in which they outgained those two teams by an average of 495 yards at 7.5 yppl to 342 yards at 5.7 yppl. Washington is a better team than Michigan and they should win this game.
