Southern Jaguars vs. Washington Huskies Prediction

I’m on Washington here. I just think the Huskies are the better team and there’s not much of a takeaway for me for Southern after back-to-back wins over subdivision teams and in their two games against D-I competition this season, Southern gave up 100+ points. The Huskies have done a good job of taking care of inferior opposition this season and I think will only get better as this team continues to get healthy. I’ll roll with Washington at home in this one.
