Michigan vs Wake Forest Prediction 

Michigan has only played one game so far this season, but they looked very good against an Oakland team that played Purdue tough in their next game. The Wolverines shot over 64% from the field and made 19 three pointers in that win. Wake Forest is 2-0 to start the season and they have scored 81 and 88 points, but they didn’t pull away from Morehead State last time out. I think Michigan is an elite team this season and I like them to have another huge day on the offensive end of the court. Take the Wolverines to cover here.
