5 predictions for Michigan football season opener vs. Fresno State

Semaj Morgan has a day

I have a feeling that we'll see a few explosive plays from Semaj Morgan. There has been talk about him taking a leap all offeason and I'm excited to see how Michigan football gets the ball into his hands.

Truly, Morgan can be a terror in the slot. The Wolverines will probably use more screens, especially with a guy like Colston Loveland out there to block and Morgan will make his way into the end zone on Saturday.

Michigan's receiving group is more dynamic than folks realize and they will make teams tackle them. Tyler Morris had that catch-and-run touchdown in the Rose Bowl. Morgan is dynamic with the ball in his hands and will be an ever better wide receiver.

I feel like 100 total yards (rushing and receiving) is doable for Morgan along with a touchdown in the season opener.

Michigan football vs. Fresno State score prediction

I think Michigan is hungry to prove a point. They know that Fresno State is good enough to make this interesting but I think U-M will be sharp and the Wolverines will dominate the line of scrimmage.

The quarterback play will be good enough and they will cover the spread, 38-13.
