Why Washington will win the National Championship


Written by Oliver William, of Swish Tribune

Est Read: 5 Mins


When you have arguably the best 1-2 punch in College Football, you are going to be the team to beat. However, with the worst odds at 7 to 1, Washington is a surprising underdog to win it all, with Michigan, Texas, and Alabama having  3 to 1 odds.


However I believe Washington will prove why they are  the best team in the country,


Firstly, Jade McMillan is Back 

The star receiver is finally back after sitting out most of the season with a  knee injury. In 2022, he put up over 1,000 yards with 9 Touchdowns. In the previous five games in which he suited up, the junior had accumulated five receptions for 26 yards. In the Pac-12 title game, the 6-foot 188-pound wideout had nine receptions for 131 yards. This relieves a lot of pressure from the best receiver on the field and future NFL first-round pick Rome Odunze, who has another 1,000-yard season.


Jade McMillan is an exceptional route runner and has the trust of Micheal Penix to get the ball down the field. The Huskies offense is much more dynamic with J-Mac, (If he wasn't elite he wouldn't have a nickname). Jade McMillan is finally coming back at the right time and will be a key part of their championship push.


If any Team can put up 35+ it's the Huskies


The Huskies have been a team of resilience this year, with tight wins against  Oklahoma State, and USC and  OREGON twice, who was a top 3 team this season and looked like the best offense this season. They have been DAWGS all year long. Understanding the competition in the playoffs, Texas, Bama, and Michigan all have the best 3 coaches in college football. They are very good at playing to their pace and controlling the game. However, the Huskies have dropped 35+ in 8 out of their 12 games and have a way of exposing defenses when it matters most. They have THE most impressive resume out of any team in the playoffs and with Heisman candidate Micheal Penix Jr, throwing for 4,218 and 33 touchdowns, it will be hard to stop this team from scoring with their weapons and a Quarterback who has had a career year. 



I Can't wait to see what they can do in the playoff championship and in a great spot to win the Natty.

ACC & Big 12 Approves new CFP Revenue Model

Image
 Are They ACCtually in Trouble? Sage Rubin, Swish Tribune Despite moving to 12 teams, the College Football Playoff is set to move to 14 teams in the coming years. However, this time, there is a twist: Both the SEC and the Big Ten conferences are set to take 58% of the generated revenue, while the ACC and Big 12 are set to take 32% of the revenue, leaving Notre Dame and the G5 to take the other 10% of revenue. While this may seem like a no-brainer for the ACC and Big 12 as this ensures at least a somewhat large share of the pie in a world where we are beginning to see two power conferences emerge… this was a much more dangerous decision on the ACC’s end and here’s why. FSU and the ACC are currently in a lengthy legal battle involving FSU trying to set themselves up for an exit from the ACC, citing that the conference has hampered their ability to compete with the competition. The most prominent example of this was the controversial College Football Playoff Selection Show that aired ...

My Knicks Trade Deadline Wishlist

Image
Written By: Spencer Teman, of Swish Tribune The NBA Trade Deadline is just days away and many teams are in need of making a move including the New York Knicks. The Knicks have been one of the hottest teams of late, being 9-1 in their last 10 games, but they are not anywhere near perfect as a roster just yet.  The Knicks already made one of the biggest trades in the NBA this season when they acquired OG Anunoby from Toronto, but their next move needs to be centered around acquiring another shooter that can play valuable minutes off the bench.  Once the Knicks are fully healthy again, they have a tremendous starting lineup, but ever since they traded away RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley, and also with multiple injuries, their depth has been tested. The only way you can be successful as a team in the NBA is to be able to knock down 3's at a highly consistent rate.  The perfect guy that comes to mind for the Knicks, who fits Tom Thibodeau's wishlist, is Bruce Brown. Bruce Br...
