Wisconsin at Michigan picks and predictions

Prediction

Michigan 34, Wisconsin 13

Moneyline

PASS.

The Badgers have dropped back-to-back games, but Michigan (-900) is too expensive as a home favorite on the moneyline.

Against the spread

BET MICHIGAN -17.5 (-105).

The Badgers have shown nothing to warrant backing them Saturday. They have looked disoriented, unable to move the ball offensively or stop it defensively, with both of their wins coming against mid-major programs. In their last game, the Badgers fell by 17 points as 10-point home favorites.

The Wolverines have dominated at home this season, winning by an average of 38.5 points through their 2 games at Michigan Stadium. Even against a Badgers team coming off a bye, Michigan will capitalize on its home-field advantage.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 43.5 (-110).

The Wolverines have scored at least 30 points in 3 of their 4 games while allowing at least 17 points in 3 of 4, hitting the Over in back-to-back contests.

The Badgers have allowed at least 27 points in back-to-back games and have scored at least 10 in all 4 of their contests.

While Michigan will carry most of the offensive load, this total is low enough that a couple of Wisconsin scores will help the Over hit.
