Michigan +9.5
I'm drinking the Kool Aid. I don't see Michigan winning this game. Too much on the line for Illini here and they dominate us at home. But, Michigan will go down kicking and screaming and I expect them to come out focused after near collapses to Indiana and N'Western last week. We have more scoring options than I thought a young team would in conference play. We will hang around and come up short. Illinois has two difficult road tilts on the schedule following this game so there could be a little bit of a "look ahead" feel in the 2nd half.
Final Score Illinois 67 Michigan 61
