## Resource

Michigan kicks off its season against Western Michigan, a MAC champion with a potent offense and stingy defense, in a high-stakes Week One showdown. Despite being heavy favorites—27.5-point spread, minus-5000 moneyline—the Wolverines face a real test as the Broncos aim to prove they can compete with Big Ten talent. Kickoff is Saturday, Sept. 5, at 7:36 PM ET on NBC (stream Peacock or Fubo with free trial). Analysts Noah Eagle and Todd Blackledge will call the action, with Kathryn Tappen on the sidelines. Can Michigan live up to the hype—or will Western Michigan pull off an upset? The answer drops Saturday night. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
