Northwestern does have a better record at 7-2 Straight Up on the season and 8-1-0 Against The Spread.  Michigan has 3 losses and a 4-5 ATS record.

Michigan beat Northwestern by 18 points on the road last season.  They were a -7 favorite at the time.

As a favorite of between 3.5 and 10 points, Michigan is just 22-41 ATS since 1993 even though they are 40-22 Straight Up over this time period.  They have a horrible record of covering in this line range.

Consider these important betting trends as well:

The Wildcats are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a ATS win.

The Wildcats are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games after accumulating less than 170 yards passing in their previous game.

The Wolverines are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games in November.

The Wolverines are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

The Wolverines are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games following a ATS win.

The Wolverines are 10-26 ATS in their last 36 conference games.

When playing a team with a winning record, the Wolverines are just 6-14 ATS.

This game has a Northwestern cover written all over it, perhaps even an outright win if you ask those of us here at Gambling911.com. 

The game itself was not seeing overwhelming action from the gambling public heading into Saturday morning.
