Michigan will use this as a tune-up for its next game against Oklahoma, which is scheduled for the following week. They still are dealing with the sign-stealing scandal, but the Wolverines are making no apologies for beating Ohio State and Alabama to close out the 2024 season. Things look even brighter this year in Ann Arbor as phenom Bryce Underwood will start at quarterback. Michigan also acquired wide receiver Donaven McCulley and running back Justice Hayes in the transfer portal. The Wolverines covered their last four games in 2024, and they are 26-11-2 ATS the past four seasons. Jason Eck is the new head coach for New Mexico, which lost 30 players, including 13 starters from last year's squad. The Lobos allowed 38 points per game in 2024, and New Mexico QB Jack Layne followed Eck from Idaho, which lost 52-19 to Montana State in the FCS quarterfinals. Take Michigan to cover the big number.
