## Resource

Michigan kicks off its season under new head coach Kyle Whittingham in a high-stakes primetime showdown against Western Michigan, the reigning MAC champs. Despite being ranked 95th by SP+, Western Michigan is hungry for a repeat — but Michigan’s got the edge. With a revamped offense led by a strong running game and a buzzworthy offensive line, plus quarterback Bryce Underwood needing to prove his growth, this could be the perfect stage for a statement win. Defensively, Michigan must contain WMU’s tough returning OL and dual-threat QB. Expect a comfortable victory that signals a fresh, confident start under Whittingham — and sets the tone for what’s ahead.
