The countdown is on until the biggest game in college football and this week the Kansas City Chiefs were asked to pick their winner.

The Michigan Wolverines take on the Washington Huskies in the CFP National Championship in Houston on Monday.

Andy Reid’s Chiefs underwent their final practice on Friday ahead of the climax of the NFL regular season on Sunday.

As well as preparing to face the Los Angeles Chargers, however, Travis Kelce and Co were asked to pick a winner in Monday’s game.

The tight end, a native of Ohio, is among those who fancy Jim Harbaugh’s Wolverines to triumph.

‘What are they feeding them boys in the Midwest?’ Kelce answered. ‘That’s all i’m saying!’

Wide receiver Kadarius Toney was also among those who picked Michigan but a number of players including offensive tackle Wanya Morris picked the Huskies.

Cornerback Trent McDuffie, a former student at Washington, also backed his former school, while several players – such as linebacker Drue Tranquill – refused to pick either. ‘They both should be scared of Notre Dame next year,’ he joked.

After 20 votes were cast by Chiefs players and staff, the results read: Michigan 8-12 Washington.
