Bookies not giving much respect to Michigan. I think Wolverines can cover +7.5 spread. What ya think?These relative warm-up games at the beginning of the season don’t tell us much about a team’s potential, but it’s clear Michigan has a pretty deep roster of scorers and can spread the ball around pretty well.
As for Villanova, this is their first game against a ranked opponent; they won’t get another shot until Kansas in mid-December as things stand right now. We’re going to see plenty of fireworks in this game and it’ll be a must-watch matchup. I was going to give a slight advantage to an at-home and well-rounded Villanova, but this one could go either way and I’m staying back. With that thick line, I think Michigan can get in there.
