This Akron Zips program has been feeling its oats for the last few years, but this does not look like the turnaround year. The Zips enter this contest winless in their last 33 games vs. FBS opponents, and now they have to try and compete with a monster in the Big House. Michigan has already dispatched with Central Michigan here by 50 points. And, Akron is a few notches below that club. Michigan's win over Notre Dame has this team believing that they can be a BCS Bowl game team this year, and they won't let up in this one. The Michigan offense generated 59 points vs. Central Michigan and 41 vs. Notre Dame, and are well armed to score big enough here to take down the big number. In his coaching career, Brady Hoke is 13-4 ATS in September games. All Michigan in this one.
