Previewing the college football Week 2 matchup between Washington Huskies and Michigan Wolverines, with odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The Washington Huskies (0-1) and Michigan Wolverines (1-0) meet in a non-conference matchup at Michigan Stadium this Saturday at 8:00 p.m. ET.  Below, we look at Washington at Michigan odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

Rankings according to the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

This was supposed to be one of the marquee matchups of Week 2, but the FCS Montana Grizzlies spoiled that with a 13-7 stunner over preseason No. 21 Washington Saturday. The Huskies managed just under 300 yards of total offense and didn’t turn the ball over. So this upset can’t entirely be written off as a fluke.

Michigan took care of business against in-state MAC opponent Western Michigan Saturday, winning 47-14. The offense racked up over 550 total yards thanks to an efficient performance from QB Cade McNamara (9-for-11, 136 yards, 2 TDs) and 70+ yards rushing from three different players. The Wolverines defense gave up just 310 yards.

Washington at Michigan head-to-head

Michigan holds a 7-5 advantage in this series, but even the oldest players on the field this Saturday were toddlers when these two last met in 2002.

Washington played just four games in 2020, and while they went 3-1 and won the Pac-12 North, they covered just once in those four games. Michigan didn’t fare much better last season as they failed to cover the spread in any of their last five games.
