Michigan vs. Indiana
Here is an interesting match up between two unbeaten teams in the Big Ten Opener. Even though it is rare to see Indiana at 3-0 it really isn't surprising because they have been huge favorites in each of those games. Indiana has played Towson, Western Kentucky, and Akron. None of these institutions are in BCS conferences and as a result they don't have team speed like the Wolverines do. The most important factor in winning in college football is having more team speed than your opponent and the Wolverines with Denard Robinson and Vince Smith from Florida in the backfield, each with 4.3 speed, it will be tough for Indiana to stop them. Also Indiana's run defense gave up 160 rushing yards to Akron last week, and if they couldn't halt the Zips attack they will not be able to stop the Wolverines number one ranked rushing offense, which is averaging over 330 yards per game. Indiana is also 1-4 against the spread in their last 5 home games against the Wolverines and they have lost 35 of the last 36 times these teams have played each other. With this surprisingly fast shrinking line I like Michigan to light up the scoreboard again and win this one.
Michigan -9.5
