Overview
- Michigan opened at -9 and is now -9.5 to -10 at FanDuel, BetMGM and DraftKings, with the total hovering around 40.5–41.5.
- The Nov. 15 matchup with Northwestern kicks off at noon ET on FOX at Chicago’s Wrigley Field.
- Michigan is 7-2 (5-1 Big Ten) but just 3-6 against the spread and has frequently finished under low totals this season.
- Northwestern is 5-4 (3-3 Big Ten) after a 38-17 loss at USC and seeks a bowl-clinching win in its first 2025 game at Wrigley, where wind and atypical logistics could factor.
- Moore says the bye week helped the roster heal and emphasized urgency, while recruiting added 2026 pledges from LB Aden Reeder and OL Tommy Fraumann to bring the class to about 24.
