In one of the most anticipated College Football Playoff Championship games in recent memory, two 14-0 teams geared up to battle in Houston. Intrigue skyrocketed as two conflicting styles of play... Michigan's running and defense versus Washington's weapon-laden, diverse offense and points would be settled on the field. The former proved superior. The tone was set early on two early breakout runs by Donovan Edwards, who had been relegated to more of a change-of-pace back through the year behind workhorse Blake Corum. But it was Edwards who burst through the Huskies defensive line twice in the first 13 minutes of the game to stake the Wolverines to a 14-3 lead, after which Washington never got closer than a TD. Both Edwards runs were 40+ yards and hit paydirt for the first two touchdowns of the game. He totaled 104 yards on just 6 carries, but his strong start is worthy of the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
