Eastern Michigan vs. Washington Prediction

I’m on the Huskies here. I just think that the Huskies are heads and shoulders the better team here and while Cole Snyder had a good first outing against UMass, facing the Minutemen and facing the Huskies are two different things. You can already see Jedd Fisch’s fingerprints on the game plan with Washington, and I think that an experienced aerial QB in Will Rogers should have no problems picking apart this Eastern Michigan defense. Not one I’m rushing to bet because of the number, but I think Washington wins it 38-10. Give me Washington.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Washington -24.5
