Live updates, week 6 highlights

A national championship rematch between Michigan and Washington is among the headline games of Week 6 of the college football season.

However, the two national finalists for the 2023 season are in completely different circumstances this time.

The Wolverines – the reigning national champions – and Huskies meet for the first time as Big Ten opponents. And while both teams aren't nearly as impressive as they were last season, as Michigan lost 13 players in the 2024 NFL Draft and Washington lost star quarterback Michael Penix Jr. to the draft and coach Kalen DeBoer, who went to Alabama for the same job changed.

It's not often that last season's two national championship opponents meet again, but with new coaches, as former Michigan offensive coordinator Sherrone Moore took over the head coaching duties in the offseason from Jim Harbaugh, now of the Los Angeles Chargers NFL practices. Washington is now led by former Arizona coach Jedd Fisch.

Washington will be tasked with stopping Michigan's powerful rushing attack, which racked up 290 yards and three touchdowns against USC on Sept. 21. However, the Wolverines have struggled in the passing game, as Alex Orji managed just 118 yards on 30 pass attempts in his last two starts.

The same can't be said for the Huskies' passing attack, as Will Rogers, a transfer from Mississippi State, has thrown for 1,354 yards with 10 touchdowns with no interceptions in five starts this season while completing 74.8% of his passes.

Michigan vs Washington predictions

Here's a prediction for the game, according to Detroit Free Press Michigan beat writer Tony Garcia:

“It would be foolish to exclude Michigan from any game, but winning this game will be a challenge. It's a 2,000-mile journey into a hostile environment against a program looking to avenge a loss in a CFP championship game in January. U-Dub moved the ball well in the air and Michigan was vulnerable to the pass. If UM doesn't take an early lead, the second-half struggles of the last two weeks point to a possible collapse. Simply put, it's hard to win at Husky Stadium, where U-Dub has won 17 straight games.“

The choice: Washington 26, AT 20.
