Ridiculous OP notwithstanding, UW is a lot like Ole Miss but better, so they have an outside chance. Saban having weeks to prepare and the athletic difference will be too much to overcome, though.
I'd love to see UW take the whole thing. Inexplicably always been a little bit of a fan.

Do like me and enjoy the beatdown. Alabama by 17 after Saban calls off the dogs. If not, well, how high does your calculator go?

Washington is 100th out of 128 teams in plays per game. Ole Miss is 21st.
They're 92nd in pass attempts per game. Ole Miss is 10th.
They're 28th in passing yards per game. Ole Miss is 10th.
They pass the ball 44% of the time (82nd nationally). Ole Miss passes 55% of the time (15th).
Washington will run plays from under center. Ole Miss doesn't have an under-center formation in the playbook.
UW is like Ole Miss in that they are both FBS college football teams, but otherwise they're nowhere near similar.
Edited to add - Washington is much more of a pro set type of team and those don't usually to well against Alabama.
