    Take Utah - 4.5 huge over a hyped Michigan

    Utah is a much better team... 8-0 against the spread last yr with alot of returning starters. Michigan still suck.... The books are trying to lure you in to the Harbaugh hype. Cash in to start the college football season right.

    Neither team has played any yet and is already hyped.

    I don't think you're wrong but there's a reason they're hyped, there's few coaches that have the potential to turn a team around like Harbaugh. You may be right and after this they get exposed and Michigan are around the +10 spread that they should be in games like this, but until we see how much Harbaugh can do in 6 months, I'd rather sit it out and see how it plays out. He could have turned this team around, they have the talent because of their name, we'll see. I'll watch their first 2 games then decide

    Guys, yes Harbaugh will turn around Michigan, but to the general public who looks at this and expects an auto turn around game 1, year 1 for Harbaugh, on the road on a Thursday night in Utah against the 17th ranked team in the nation. Please.

    Michigan will be a serious threat next season moving forward. This turnaround will take time.

    Utah is in a different class than Michigan right now.

    A thread I agree with. I thought the line would go the other way. I might bust out day one of college football...I'm going all in on Utah (mostly ml)

    At the source I watch, I see RLM here, guys, with the Utes having the largest percentage of wagers at this point in time, their percentage has gone up while the line has gone down. Anybody see evidence that Michigan is the "public" choice other than espn and homers?

    Utah beat Michigan 26-10 in Michigan last year but I still don't want to take it. I agree with OP Utah probably takes this game by a touchdown or two but I want to wait to see how Michigan is.

    The line has been between 5 and 6 for the last 3 days and this guy claims he got 4 1/2. This is so typical of the Bull S**ters in here. Always trying to get a 1/2 point here or there. Never telling us where they get the line. Never telling us how much they put down. Most of these guys do not wager a penny. By the way, Utah was 8-4 ATS, NOT 8-0. Can the B.S.

    Was -5 at my book, went to -5.5, now at -6

    Pac-12 coaches have said that Utah is a tougher place to play than people think... Michigan QB situation is not clear, Utah has a solid senior QB and a darkhorse Heisman candidate in RB Booker. They have NFL talent and I think Michigan will take some time to get the full Harbaugh effect....

    I think Utah wins 31-17

    I agree. I dropped a dime on this game. I moved to Utah from Vegas last winter, and believe me, this Ute team is all they talk about on the radio once the Jazz wrap up the season. This Ute team is strong, and has depth. I expect them to win by 10 tonight.

    Big daddy I'm here just to share my opinion on the game. Why do you have to be so hostile? By the way I got - 4.5 at sportsbookag.com last night and put 2 bones on the game. And I stand corrected... I meant Utah is 8-0 ats in non conference games. I don't know why I'm wasting my time in responding to your post but there it is. Now enough with the Bull Shit comments.

    You really are. Did you see anyone else saying any of such nonsense before him? He is a moron, just ignore him.
