People will tell you that regular season games don’t matter anymore due to the expanded College Football Playoff. Tell them to watch the scenes at Husky Stadium after Washington toppled No. 10 Michigan to avenge last season’s National Championship Game defeat. The win won’t bring the trophy to Montlake. But the bliss throughout Seattle makes it easy to ignore.
