Betting on the Maryland Terrapins
- Regular Season Record: 3-0
- Spread: +16.5
- BetMGM Moneyline: (+550)
- Over/Under: 64.5
Despite the fact that Maryland’s first three wins have come against much weaker teams, it is a reality that the offense is performing very well under Taulia Tagovailoa.
The quarterback has completed 77% of his passes for 895 yards, six touchdowns and just two interceptions. This is thanks to the fact that they also have a great line of receivers and a ground attack that averages six yards per carry. Of course, this Saturday, we will see how real these numbers are when they have to face the most solid defense they have seen so far.
The Terrapins will also have to prove whether they are prepared to stop Michigan’s powerful ground attack, which has thus far made disasters working at half speed. Another detail to take into account is that Maryland only has seven catches all year, and they will face one of the best offensive lines in the nation.
Betting on the Michigan Wolverines
- Regular Season Record: 3-0
- Unibet Spread: -16.5
- Moneyline: (-769)
- Over/Under: 64.5
Next Saturday, the Wolverines could have their first big test of the season despite winning their last six games against Maryland.
J.J. McCarthy will again be Michigan’s offensive leader after taking the controls against Connecticut and throwing for 214 yards. However, Michigan’s power is on the ground thanks to its great offensive line and Blake Corum, who not only has 164 yards on the year, but is coming off five touchdowns last weekend.
Michigan’s defense hasn’t had much breathing room in 2022 either by conceding just 17 points in three games. They will have their toughest test of these first four weeks against Maryland, but they shouldn’t have much trouble keeping the game at bay for their powerful offense.
JefeBet Prediction
The calling card of both teams is the offense. Marylan has not scored fewer than 31 points this season while Michigan has never dipped below 50. Three of the last five clashes between these two programs have resulted in a high score and the offenses are in a good momentum.
Prediction: Over (Maryland 35 – Michigan 58).
