Bet on Bowling Green +25.5 at Michigan in Week 4
By Drew Sharper
No. 21 Michigan has the offense to cover a 25.5-point spread, but do the Wolverines have the defense to cover against Bowling Green in Week 4?
Michigan is a 25.5-point favorite at home according to oddsmakers from online sports book BroburySports.com. The over/under has been set at 58.5.
Our pick for this game leans toward Bowling Green for no other reason than the Wolverines have struggled on defense, especially in the passing game. Michigan gives up 439 yards per-game with 269 coming through the air. The Falcons post 258 yards per-game passing and have scored at least 20 points in all three games this season.
Trends show that Michigan is just 3-10 against the spread as a favorite since 2008 and 8-18 ATS in all lined games since that time. Bowling Green, on the other hand, is 13-2 ATS in road games over the last three seasons and 9-3 ATS as an underdog in that time.
