Michigan vs. Maryland Betting Prediction
Michigan leads the country in average scoring margin this season at +31.5 points per game. That number is over a touchdown better than the next best team which is Oregon at +24.2 points per game. The Wolverines have 9 wins this season by more than 20 points, and they have gone 4-0 ATS on the road this season. It’s worth noting that Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh won’t be coaching on the sideline for this game, but offensive coordinator and interim head coach Sherrone Moore led the Wolverines to a big 24-15 road win over a good Penn State team last weekend. The last time Michigan played at Maryland was in November of 2021. The Wolverines won that game going away 59-18. I like Michigan to win in College Park in blowout fashion again this Saturday.
