Maryland Terrapins at Michigan Wolverines Prediction

The Wolverines have won two of their last three but have dropped the L3 versus the line, so they find themselves in disfavour with the betting public. That’s a good spot for us to jump on the host who has won all but one home game this season. They catch a Terrapin team that has played just one game in the last 11 days and two in the last 18 days and may not have their game legs to keep this competitive to the end. Lay the points.
