The Michigan Wolverines (4-1, 2-0 Big 10) take on the Washington Huskies (3-2, 1-1) at Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium Saturday. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET (NBC). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college football odds around the Michigan vs. Washington odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
Michigan, No. 10 in the US LBM Coaches Poll, snuck by the Minnesota Gophers last week, failing to cover as a 10.5-point favorite, but coming away with a 27-24 W. The Wolverines rode RB Kalel Mullings, who rushed 24 times for 111 yards and 2 TDs.
The Huskies fell 21-18 at Rutgers last week as 1-point dogs. QB Will Rogers was 26-for-36 for 306 yards, 2 TDs and 0 INTs. RB Jonah Coleman rushed 16 times for 148 yards. All of that looks great, so how did they lose? They couldn’t finish drives and went 1-for-4 on field-goal tries.

Michigan at Washington picks and predictions
Prediction
Michigan 17, Washington 14
Moneyline
Michigan’s passing attack is non-existent, and that’s the only question mark in this affair. It still has a great defense and a great running game. Michigan is more battle-tested, and if Washington failed to put it in the end zone against Rutgers, it’s going to really have trouble here.
Take MICHIGAN +100.
Against the spread
There’s no point in taking the spread when we’re taking the even-money Wolverines on the ML.
PASS.
Over/Under
This should be a low-scoring affair with the Wolverines’ pass rush making things difficult. Washington is 1-9 O/U in its last 10. Michigan is 6-4. The Under has cashed in the last 2 meetings, which were won handily by Michigan. Its offense isn’t clicking like that anymore.
Take the UNDER 41.5 (-110).
