Michigan vs. Illinois Prediction, Tips, Odds

Tony Garcia, Detroit Free Press: On paper, the matchup is interesting. Illinois can throw the ball but can’t run it, while UM gives up the pass and stifles the run. On the other hand, Michigan can run the ball but can’t throw it, while the Illini are down on the floor this year but have proven solid passing. UM had a chance to rest and refocus its energy last week as it prepares for the stretch run. Another loss and a fourth straight appearance in the College Football Playoff are likely out of the question. Michigan is a desperate team and you can’t fake it; But there’s also no denying what this game means to the Illini. For a mediocre show on an anniversary weekend for a chance to defeat the reigning champions and make a statement on national television? Tuttle will help UM play complementary football, but this moment means more to Illinois. The choice: Illinois 23, Michigan 20.

  • Spread: Michigan by 3½.
  • Over/Under Overall: 44½.
  • Money line: Michigan -175, Illinois +145.
