Michigan hosts USC on Saturday in a key matchup between the top teams in the Big Ten Conference rankings. The Wolverines have struggled to stay consistent after a shaky start.
Meanwhile, the Trojans will be well-rested after having a bye week following season-opening wins over Louisiana State and Utah State.
Miller Moss has been named the starting quarterback at USC, an opportunity he has waited years for despite his lack of experience.
He should be able to handle Michigan's rushing attack and get the ball to Troy's pass-catching corps of Zachariah Branch, Lake McCrea, Makai Lemon and Jakobi Lane.
After Davis Warren was intercepted three times against Arkansas State, Michigan announced it would start Alex Orji this week.
At 6-foot-3 and 235 pounds, Orji is a better athlete with much more potential from a rushing standpoint and should thrive in this game.
We expect both teams' offenses to have a decisive advantage in this match, which should make for a much higher scoring contest than we expect.
