Michigan vs. Washington series history
Michigan and Washington have met 13 times in series history and Monday's national title game will be the 14th matchup between the Power Five foes. Michigan holds the all-time series lead at 8-5 and the Wolverines also hold a two-game winning streak. The last time they met was actually back in 2021, a year before Kalen DeBoer took over and Michigan won 31-10.
Both of these teams are far different from where they were back in September of 2021, so expect this to be one of the best games of the year.
