Will you watch it?

Think I'll fish instead. Has to be a nightmare for the networks to have these two match up.

Houston can't be too happy either.

I'll check the score around 4th quarter time then decide

Rooting for UW.

I live pretty close to the university for one, and also, I am being treated by hospitals in the UW system for brain injury rehabilitation. That's a good enough free to root for UW, for me.

In the south ? Can't imagine some random fan in Athens GA or Gainesville being dialed in to this.

I would bet the ratings will be just fine.

I want Wash to win, but having said that I might plunk down alot $ on Mich. Already made some small bets with my Wash winnings.

I think Mich should win. Their defense is so much better.

Michigan's got that game.
I'm not a Michigan fan but their victory over Alabama was much more impressive than Washington's over the sips.

Michigan opens up as a 4.5 point favorite

It's college football between 2 really good teams. If you like the sport, why wouldn't you watch?

Could be a great game. Styles make the fight. Great offense vs a great defense.

I'll take Michigan because of their o line.

This is good news to fight the Nascarization of CFB. Who gives a **** if someone in Starkville or Athens is watching? Pull in some national markets.

It'll be a sellout regardless. Houston will be fine….Houston sips will be sad. Darn!

UM vs. UW will be a good game

but no doubt Bama vs. t.u. was the desired matchup nationally and locally (Houston)

You do realize that a network ponied up money to make sure this exact matchup happens at least every other year, and potentially twice in a year, right?

And they did so bc they are pretty sure people are gonna watch.

Au contraire. I think the country is suffering from such a case of SEC fatigue that a lot more people would tune in than ordinarily would

I like U Dub but I think Meatchicken will crush them. Just look like a much more solid team overall and they won't just let Penix have his way with them like sip did

I'm not sure Michigan has faced a team that can do what Washington can.

However, Washington is going to get the ball shoved down their throat all game. If texas could have ever gotten in front, they could have done the same.

Michigan wins. Vegas has the 4.5 point favorites bur I think it's a 10+ game

Because commercials have taken over, and people don't want to go bed at midnight.

Washington RB getting hurt might be their down fall finally in the title game. We shall see.

Michigan running game will have success as well and they will not go away from it like the sips did.

You are nuts. Both of these are blue bloods who have won national championships for years but have been mostly downtrodden for years. The stadium will be filled to capacity and ratings will be high.

Part of it can be attributed to how poorly Milroe played like the Milroe of the first four games.

Which can be attributed to how Michigan defense played. (And bad snaps)

Seeing as how "No SEC" is trending on Twitter, I am inclined to agree with you.

Two teams I have no problem with, yeah I'll watch.

Hoping for a high scoring instant classic

Some of you just aren't big college football fans. Nothing wrong with that. But wondering if you will watch the championship game? Really?

Just beautiful they tried all season to shove that ****ty lib infested town and school in, even deboer was in on the fix.

the only thing that counts is how much are the TV ratings, not how many people file into the game

and I bet that there will still be a sellout anyway in Houston.

it will be a MUCH larger national draw to have Huskies vs. Wolverines (Seatle and Detroit markets)


instead of the fourth iteration of Alabama versus Clemson (Tuscaloosa and Clemson two very small media markets).

Of course people are gonna watch the Natty. I can't remember the last time I didn't watch the Natty. Especially with betting being so available nowadays
