Michigan Football: Odds and prediction vs TCU in the Fiesta Bowl

Michigan football is the No. 2 seed for the second straight year and will face TCU in the Fiesta Bowl. The Horned Frogs are 12-1 and are one of the three teams to have beaten every team on their schedule at least once. Michigan football has been elite against the run and showed it can hem up one the best passing games in college football in Ohio State. The Wolverines do a great job of using bracket coverage. Texas Tech didn't win the Big 12 title but it beat Kansas State earlier in season.

Michigan football is a 7.5-point favorite in the Fiesta Bowl against TCU. The over/under is 59.

The line has moved in TCU's direction since opening at 9.5 points. Michigan football should find success running the football and TCU should score some points too. However, I don't see 60 points being scored. Michigan will want to grind things out on the ground after getting the lead and that will lead to fewer plays for the TCU offense and a score in the 50s.
