Key Matchups: No. 9 Michigan vs. Fresno State

The offseason has been ripe with speculation about which Michigan Wolverines will step up in 2024, and now we’ll get a chance to see how it all plays out this Saturday night in the Big House.

The betting lines favor Michigan by double-digits, but we don’t expect the Bulldogs to just roll over in this one, as they have a handful of talented players returning in 2024.

Here are the key matchups we’re watching in Week 1.
