Michigan vs. Illinois Prediction, Picks, Odds

Tony Garcia, Detroit Free Press: On paper, the matchup is interesting. Illinois can throw the ball and not run, while UM gives up the pass and stifles the run. On the other hand, Michigan can run the ball and not throw it, while the Illini have been beaten to the ground this year but have proven to be solid against the pass. UM had a chance to rest and refocus her energy last week as she prepares for the stretch run. One more loss and a fourth consecutive trip to the College Football Playoff is likely out of the question. Michigan is a desperate team and there is no way to fake that; but there’s also no faking what this game means for the Illini. For a mediocre program, during an anniversary weekend, to get the chance to beat the reigning champions and make a statement on national television? Tuttle will help UM play complementary football, but this moment means more for Illinois. The choice: Illinois 23, Michigan 20.

  • Spread: Michigan by 3½.
  • More/less total: 44½.
  • Moneyline: Michigan -175, Illinois +145.
