The final chapter of the 2023 college football season will be written Monday night in Houston. A matchup of the nation’s last two undefeated FBS programs and the champions of the Big Ten and the PAC-12 will square off in Texas for the right to be called national champion. The Michigan Wolverines have been on a mission all season long not only to get to this point, but to take it all. Washington may not have been the program many thought would reach this stage at the beginning of the year but the Huskies proved to be more than worthy of being on the radar. Can the Huskies and their tremendous passing attack get enough time to operate and dissect one of the best defenses in the nation?
Monday night’s College Football Playoff national championship game offers a contrast in offensive styles. While Washignton will throw all over the field with their Heisman Trophy runner-up quarterback Michael Penix Jr., the Wolverines will play a much more physical style that has a way of wearing down opponents later in the game, allowing Blake Corum and the Michigan running game to have its way. Michigan also appears to have an edge when it comes to its defense, but the Huskies will pose the biggest and most lethal offensive threat Michigan has faced all season.
