Michigan will run the table at home

This prediction sort of goes along with the previous one, about the Wolverines playing for a berth in the Big Ten title game the last week.

I believe that will happen because Michigan will run the table at home, just like it did back in 2018. The home schedule features Michigan State, Maryland, Penn State and Wisconsin. It’s not easy.

But, Jim Harbaugh is 2-0 at home against Wisconsin and Penn State and I just don’t believe either team is more talented. They are on par with the Wolverines but the home teams have dominated lately in both series.

Wisconsin has won the last two at home, so has Penn State and Michigan has done the same to each. The Badgers and Nittany Lions have more experienced quarterbacks, however, they don’t play the Wolverines in Week 1.

By the time they see Joe Milton, he will be cruising along and even if not, the defense/running game should be enough to deliver wins against both, plus the Terps and Spartans.
