    First look: Fresno State at Michigan odds and lines

    By Skip Snow,

    17 hours ago

    The Fresno State Bulldogs and Michigan Wolverines lift the lid on the 2024 season with a Saturday night game in Ann Arbor. Kickoff at Michigan Stadium is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET (NBC). Below, we look at Fresno State vs. Michigan odds from BetMGM Sportsbook before making our expert college football picks and predictions later in the week.

    Fresno State went 9-4 last season, and despite a change in coaching (Jeff Tedford is out for health reasons, and Tim Skipper is the new coach), the Bulldogs are expected to compete for a Mountain West championship in 2024 (+500 at BetMGM Sportsbook ).

    Michigan, ranked No. 8 in the US LBM Coaches Poll , returns just 5 starters from last year’s national championship squad. The Wolverines, though, are expected to have a lot of talent on the roster still. The depth at certain positions may be a question mark. Sherrone Moore takes over as the UM coach, replacing departed-to-the-NFL Jim Harbaugh.
