Early odds show nobody giving Washington a chance. The other three are pretty closely bunched.

As an Indiana University grad, I'm pulling for Washington. Michael Penix gave us some great games before leaving Bloomington.

All 4 are worthy even Washington

With That Said I think it is

Alabama over Michigan (potential to be an epic game)
Texas over Washington

Sadly Alabama over Texas

Washington won that game by a touchdown and was only tied about half-way through the first quarter, with the Longhorns playing catchup the rest of the day. Texas had no turnovers and Ewers threw for 369 and they still couldn't win. Of course it's a bigger stage now, but as I said, I expect the same.

Washington fans can remember the Alamo. I think Texas wins comfortably, but I'd be glad to see Michigan play Washington.

I just hope that whoever wins, doesn't kill anyone celebrating (like drag-racing)

(...AND he wasn't held accountable)

Well you got your wish. Washington coach has to be thankful his stupidity didn't cost his team the game, but IMO the better teams both won today.

I enjoyed both games and the trick play by Michigan was pretty cool

They were better than I expected, and Texas worse on defense.
