My Prediction: This looked like the year Notre Dame was making their big comeback to national prominence. Well, after week 1 you can pretty much forget about that for now. South Florida handled the Irish rather easily and now head coach Brian Kelly can't decide who he wants to start at quarterback. Tommy Rees gets the start this week against an improved Michigan defense. The Wolverines offense is led by QB Denard Robinson who ran for 1,800 yards last year while throwing 18 touchdowns. This is the first night game at Michigan Stadium ever. If Michigan can get by the Irish this week, they should start the season 6-0 before facing Michigan State. I like the Wolverines to win this game, because I think Notre Dame is a mess right now.

Michigan +3
