5 predictions for Michigan Football against Indiana

5. Andrel Anthony breaks out

I’ve been talking about how Andrel Anthony is going to have a breakout game and it feels really close. McCarthy just missed him for a touchdown against Maryland, and last week, on the play where J.J. got tripped, he was going to take a shot to Anthony, at least it seemed that way.

Anthony should get more chances this week, depending on Roman Wilson. It wouldn’t be shocking if they held him out as a precaution. The Wolverines did that with Donovan Edwards the past two weeks, and with Anthony and others waiting in the wings, there is no reason to rush anyone back.

I do believe McCarthy is going to find someone for a long touchdown and after finding Anthony for a 29-yard reception last week, Andre could be the guy.

Either way, he’ll catch a couple of passes over 20 yards and I see Anthony putting together his first solid outing with multiple catches and over 60 yards.

Michigan football vs Indiana score prediction

This could be a trap game and Tom Allen is going to have the Hoosiers ready to go. They always get up for Michigan and seem to be a thorn in the Wolverines’ side.

Still, Michigan is too deep and too talented. The Wolverines quarterback is also too good. Indiana will get some yards and score a few times, but the Wolverines prevail 45-17.
