Oklahoma vs Michigan Prediction
In this Oklahoma vs Michigan Prediction, Oklahoma is coming as -5.5 road favorites. Both teams are coming off wins in their season opener and Michigan will play its second straight game at home to start the season. Oklahoma blew out UTEP by 51-0 and while Michigan is coming off a narrow one-point win, both defenses looked sharp to start the season. Oklahoma finished last season 3-1 to the under and both of their games this season also went under the total. With the total set at 43.5 points and both teams averaging 32 ppg offensively and just 6 defensively, I will go under that number.
