Michigan Likely to Keep Margin of Victory Low Against Bowling Green

Michigan has yet to win by 30 points this season. In the team's first two games, they were favored by 35 points. It appears the Wolverines may not be interested in running up the score, possibly due to the head coaching tryouts during Jim Harbaugh's suspension. This Saturday, Michigan should still win comfortably while keeping Bowling Green off the scoreboard. The Falcons bring a strong pass rush, which may pose difficulties for the Wolverines' offensive line that has yet to gel. Therefore, a victory by 40 points is unlikely for Michigan. Bowling Green should be a good choice for beating the Saturday night spread.
