Week Eleven: Michigan

NOV 23 (SAT) TBA
BLOOMINGTON, IND.

Jim Harbaugh said it best at Big Ten Media Day when talking about how the Hoosiers always give the Wolverines a tough battle, and I don’t see that changing one bit this season.

The Wolverines head into Bloomington just a week before taking on Ohio State as well as a week after playing their in-state rival Michigan State, and I do think this could be a bit of a trap game in that aspect.

Shea Patterson has another offseason in Harbaugh’s system and with the loads of skill players they have on the offensive side of the ball, Michigan will be a tough cover for any defense.

With aspirations of finally getting into the College Football Playoff and a Big Ten Championship, I think the Wolverines do pull this one out but not without a tough fight from Tom Allen and the rest of the Hoosiers.

Prediction: Michigan 24, Indiana 20
