Michigan Football vs Northern Illinois: Injury report, live Stream, TV channel and betting preview

Michigan football will be back on the field Saturday morning against Northern Illinois and here’s the key info you need including how to watch and our betting preview.

After an exhilarating night name last week, Michigan football is back to kicking off early Saturday, and awaiting the Wolverines in the Big House will be Northern Illinois.

The Huskies will have a familiar face at quarterback, which is something that’s been talked about a lot this week in former Michigan State quarterback Rocky Lombardi.

Lombardi helped lead the Spartans to an upset win in Ann Arbor last season, and you can bet guys like Aidan Hutchinson would like to pay him in back for that.

On Friday, we broke down the matchup and laid out our five predictions. Plus earlier in the week, we looked at three keys to beating NIU, plus here are five things to know about the Huskies.

As for the game Saturday: Here’s everything you need to know including key betting info, as well as how to watch and stream.

Michigan football vs Northern Illinois Injury report

Zak Zinter was the big name on the injury report a week ago for Michigan football, but he’s expected to start and so is Andrew Vastardis who did leave the Washington game near the end with an injury. It wasn’t serious.

Daylen Baldwin actually missed last week’s game against Washington with an injury. He was thought to be one of the wideouts capable of filling in for Ronnie Bell. Baldwin did catch a 69-yard score in Week 1 from J.J. McCarthy and after saying he was 95 percent earlier this week, I would expect to see him on the field.

Michigan football vs Northern Illinois Odds and Betting Pick Week 3

WynnBET’s Week 3 odds for Michigan football and Northern Illinois have the Wolverines coming into the game as a 27-point favorite. The over/under is set at 54.5 points.

Both teams run the ball well but Michigan football’s front should be able to go whatever it wants against Northern Illinois, which is allowing almost five yards per rush.

The defense is going to get after Lombardi, however, there could be a slight letdown for Michigan football following last week’s big win and this week’s less-than-stellar opponent.

Northern Illinois did win at Georgia Tech though, which should at least be enough to grab the Wolverines’ attention.

We are predicting a Michigan football victory and whether or not the Wolverines clear the point spread could be the only drama. We see it going 45-17 in favor of U-M.
