Michigan’s football team bounced back from last week’s lost to USC with one of its most complete games of the season.

The Wolverines defeated Washington 24-7 Saturday to improve to 5-2, keeping their playoff hopes alive. They totaled 417 yards of offense while keeping one of the conference’s best offenses at bay.

Washington (5-2, 2-2), fresh off a 579-yard performance in last week’s 38-19 victory over Rutgers, was bottled up by Michigan’s defense, managing just 249 yards. Standout dual-threat quarterback Demond Williams Jr. passed for 209 yards and three interceptions while finishing with negative net rushing yards.
