The Week 2 Sagarin numbers give us a a line of 6.3 favoring Texas. The line is fairly accurate at -7, though we've seen the number move to -7.5 during the course of this past week. This will be one of the most wagered on games of Week 2.
It's a rare matchup of two of the winningest programs in college football history and two of last season's playoff teams. The only previous meeting between the Longhorns and Wolverines was the 2005 Rose Bowl.
Michigan's Davis Warren passing yards total was coming in at 125.5.
The defending national champion Wolverines were sluggish on offense in much of Sherrone Moore’s debut before making plays on both side of the ball to turn a closely contested game into a lopsided win against Fresno State, 30-10.
Davis Warren and Alex Orji each threw a touchdown pass, Will Johnson returned an interception for a score.
The Wolverines (1-0) were breaking in new quarterbacks behind a revamped offensive line and Moore, whose enthusiasm was on full display before the game began.
The Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers passed for 260 yards and three touchdowns and No. 4 Texas rolled past Colorado State 52-0 on Saturday in the opener for both teams. His passing yards total Over/Under came in at 270.5 against Colorado State. Despite the rout, he still managed to stay Under that number with 260 passing yards.
Ewers connected with Matthew Golden for a pair of touchdowns in the second quarter, one of them a no-look toss, and had another strike to Isaiah Bond as the Longhorns built a 31-0 lead by halftime.
