## Resource

Michigan’s new head coach Kyle Whittingham faces immediate pressure to deliver a dominant season opener against Western Michigan — a team with championship pedigree and a surprising history of upsetting the Wolverines. Despite Michigan’s 8-0 all-time record against WMU and heavy favoritism (27.5-point spread), the game carries weight: no one wants to relive that Appalachian State shocker from 18 years ago. With home-field advantage, elite talent, and a clean execution plan, Michigan aims for a statement win to set the tone under new leadership — while Western Michigan hopes to prove they’re more than just a footnote in Big Ten lore.
