The No. 17 Michigan Wolverines will host the Arkansas State Red Wolves in their last non-conference game before a key Week 4 matchup versus the No. 11 USC Trojans. The Wolverines will look to bounce back from a blowout Week 2 loss at the hands of the No. 3 Texas Longhorns.
The Red Wolves have started their season off strong with two wins. They are fresh off a 28-24 win over Tulsa and are led by a strong passing attack headlined by sophomore quarterback Jaylen Raynor.
As these teams prepare to square off on Saturday, here are some predictions and betting tips for this Week 3 contest.
Michigan vs. Arkansas State: Prediction
The Wolverines enter this matchup as the clear runaway favorites despite facing offensive struggles in Week 2. Arkansas State is off to a solid start this season, but it will be a tall task to travel into the Big House and walk away with a win.
Michigan is the clear pick versus one of the Sun Belt's top teams this season, but don't be surprised if the Red Wolves manage to keep it competitive. This matchup could look similar to the Wolverines' season-opener versus Fresno State, where they led just 16-10 in the fourth quarter before pulling away in the 30-10 win.
