PREVIEW: Colorado who outscored their first two opponents 100-14 totaling over 1100 yards will visit Michigan who outscored their first two 114-17 while totaling over 950 yards of offense. Colorado lost eight of their last nine games last year scoring no more than 31 points in any of those games. Both teams ran and passed while not relying on one much more than the other. Both QB’s have good numbers with Colorado QB Liufau throwing for 522 yards and three TD’s and Speight throwing for 457 yards and seven TD’s for Michigan. I guess the oddsmakers are more impressed with the Wolverines as they are a 20.5 point favorite with 69% of the public agreeing according to Covers.com consensus analysis while the total opened up at 57 which isn’t far from the points put up by either team in each game they played.
