Sloppy mistakes, botched snaps & special teams errors plagued the game and Michigan has finally made it to the CFP title game. Can the Wolverines go on to win it all after the soap opera that was Harbaugh's 2023 campaign?Ross & Pat were in attendance for the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, and they describe the scene as a red-hot Michael Penix Jr. performance pushed the Huskies over the top in a high-scoring 37-31 affair over the Longhorns. Penix looked unstoppable, delivering laser after laser all night, with a 430 yard, 2 TD performance in the Superdome, but ultimately the Huskies defense needed to make the final plays of the game as Quinn Ewers lead a stunning final drive to almost snatch a Texas victory in the closing seconds.1:00 - Rose Bowl: Michigan defeats Alabama in OT18:03 - Sugar Bowl: Washington's high-powered offense too much for Texas37:20 - FSU loses badly to Georgia44:26 - The Bourbon Street blunder46:56 - Unhappy with the Rose Bowl sunset54:24 - Michigan vs. Washington lookaheadFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger🖥️ Watch this full episode on YouTubeCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports Podcasts Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts🎧 Spotify🖥️ YouTube📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tv
