Week 5 Football Bowl Projection Breakdown
With three matchups between top ten teams, there was a lot of jockeying for playoff positions this week. Clemson snuck past Louisville and Michigan held off Wisconsin, but perhaps the biggest winner of them all was Washington. On Friday night the Huskies dismantled Stanford 44-6. They are now in the driver’s seat in the Pac-12 and are currently projected to reach the playoffs. The Huskies do have a couple tough road games yet to come though, starting this week at Oregon. They also visit Utah and Cal in a few weeks. But if Washington keeps playing like they did against the Cardinal, they will keep winning games.
