Why Michigan will beat Wake Forest

  • Michigan has won each of its last eight Sunday day games against non-Conference opponents.
  • Wake Forest has lost each of its last six Sunday games.
  • Michigan has won the first half in each of its last 11 day games against non-AP-ranked opponents at a neutral venue.

Wake Forest vs Michigan Prediction 

Michigan comes into this matchup after putting up 101 points in their first game of the season and they already look like a different team than last season’s disaster. The Wolverines turned over the majority of their roster and brought in a new head coach, and they looked great in their first game. Wake Forest was able to pick up a 16-point win over NC A&T, but they failed to cover by over 10 points and didn’t shoot the ball very well. This is a neutral site game, but it is very close to Wake Forest and is almost a home game for them. I really liked how Michigan looked against Cleveland State and I like them to get the win here.
