    Michigan has opened anywhere from a +1.5 to +2.5 (depending on the book) underdog for their first road game at Washington. Another big swing (like USC) compared to where preseason spreads stood for this which was at -9 or -10 Michigan.

    Other B1G spreads:
    • #6 Oregon -24.5 vs. MSU: a Friday night game
    • Minnesota +9 vs.#11 USCL: a similar spread to Michigan-Minnesota but this one’s @ Minnesota)
    • #3 OSU -20.5 vs. Iowa
    • Wisconsin -13.5 vs. Purdue
    • #7 PSU -27.5 vs. UCLA: think they’re regretting joining the B1G?
    • Northwestern +12.5 vs. #23 Indiana: IU is undefeated and gets OSU & Michigan but miss out on playing USC, PSU, Oregon, & Illinois. 9WINDIANA? Or… 10WINDIANA?
    • Nebraska -6.5 vs. Rutgers: I’ve got a feeling this game will be very interesting and a fun watch
    ​...... and sure I'll take M for your -9.5 offer. Taglines for a week.
    Score has it still as M -9.5. You can check yourself. I have already provided a screen capture. As I said, it’s not on my book. Yet. Is Score wrong? Perhaps. It’s not my line. I can’t speak to it.

      That said, let’s say the line is actually M +2, and Score is wrong. I will still take the straight-up tagline and userpic bet. You take the Huskies. I got the Wolverines.

        No thanks. I really don't bet unless the odds are 100% in my favor and that rarely happens if at all. Your -9.5 was close if not a 100% certain winning bet. No I just wanted to take advantage of you posting odds that RIGHT NOW, not the preseason were abjectly wrong.
        Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

          The line I posted is what was on Score today. Was it outdated? Sure. Perhaps.

          And I’m not sure how you’re “taking advantage” of me. But bet or don’t. If the line is M+2 My offer was: I will give you free points to make it a pick ‘em. And I never give free points.

            It’s now UW -2 in some books. Crazy how far it’s moved because the opening line weeks ago was M -9.5 or -10. One of the more drastic point spread swings that I can remember… Makes sense. A near toss up and another game with 4th quarter stress seems logical for us.

            Heal up Jack Tuttle. You have 20 days for the Fightin’ BERTs. A partial torn UCL in his right elbow last season? Ugh… His situation is so mysterious.

                  Correct.

                  Here’s Washington’s season so far:

                  -W vs Weber State. 35-3. The Big Sky’s Weber State is currently 2-3 with losses to McNeese State and Lamar.

                  - W vs Eastern Michigan. 30-9.

                  -L at home to Washington State. 19-24.

                  -W vs Northwestern 24-5.

                  -L at Rutgers, 18-21.

                  Washington is a bad team. New coach and half the team left with DeBoer.

                      Michigan is +1.5 most places I looked at. This won't go well for us. First road came is 3 time zones away in a very loud stadium against a team wanting revenge. Not a good combo.

                      The upside for Michigan is that a good running game and defense travels. Those west coast games are usually a horror show for Michigan.

                        Michigan can run the ball, and they can play decent defense. But to beat a team coached by Jed Fisch, they'll have to throw effectively. There's the rub.

                        I don't see a path to victory for M.

                          The path to victory is pretty simple -- M is better at everything than Washington. The only reason M doesn't pass more is because they don't need to.

                              That was true against Washington last year.

                              Michigan's 27 game Big Ten winning streak is in jeopardy but it was a hell of a ride!
