The No. 15 Michigan Wolverines had to survive a scare last week against Akron. On Saturday the Wolverines will hope to avoid giving Connecticut a chance at an upset as they travel to Rentschler Field to take on the Huskies.
ABC/ESPN3 will provide coverage of this game to select markets beginning at 8:00 pm ET.
After three straight home games to open the season Michigan head coach Brady Hoke admitted he was a little worried about taking so many first year players on the road.
“I think we should take a lot of nannies on this trip, or, what do they call them? Au pairs? We’ve got a lot of freshmen who have never been to a road game and we’ve got guys who redshirted last year, so the only time they traveled was to the bowl game.”
| MICHIGAN | vs. UCONN | |
|---|---|---|
| W-L | 3-0 | 0-2 |
| Avg Points | 42.7 | 19.5 |
| Avg Points Allowed | 21.0 | 32.5 |
| Home Record | 3-0 | 0-2 |
| Road Record | 0-0 | 0-0 |
Still Michigan should have no problem butting away Connecticut, but then again the same could be said about Akron last week.
The Michigan Wolverines are a 17.5 point favorite against the Connecticut Huskies. The over/under for Saturday’s game is 51.5 total points.
Does Connecticut have anything for Michigan or do the Wolverines make everyone forget about last weeks close call?
