In a battle of historic programs that do not play often, the third-ranked Texas Longhorns are on the road Saturday afternoon to play the 10th-ranked Michigan Wolverines in Michigan Stadium. Both teams won in Week 1 and this should be an interesting matchup.

The Longhorns were able to win the opener at home against the Colorado State Rams 52-0. The Wolverines won on Saturday 30-10 against the Fresno State Bulldogs. Let's take a deeper dive into this game and discuss how this game will wind up.

This game is the first time since 2021 that the Michigan Wolverines are considered home underdogs but they have a lot of questions. Davis Warren did not look great in his first game after it was expected that Alex Orji would be the starting quarterback.

For the Longhorns, Quinn Ewers looked solid and the defense held Colorado State to just 11 total first downs.

Expect the Texas Longhorns to go on the road and easily cover the number. Get it as the line continues to soar as this opened as a four-point spread and is now sitting at seven points.

This would also snap a 23-game home winning streak for the Maize and Blue, which is only behind the Georgia Bulldogs for the longest active home winning streak (25).
