Game preview, final score predictions for the Michigan Wolverines vs. Fresno State Bulldogs college football game in Week 1 of 2024 season
No. 9 Michigan, coming off its first national championship since 1997, begins a new era under head coach Sherrone Moore by hosting Fresno State out of the Mountain West Conference. It will be the first-ever meeting between the Wolverines and the Bulldogs on the gridiron.
After a 9-4 season last year, Fresno State turns to interim head coach Tim Skipper, the program’s defensive coordinator, to lead the team after former head coach Jeff Tedford stepped down due to health concerns. The Bulldogs enter 2024 with the second-best odds to win the Mountain West, led by an experienced senior quarterback in Mikey Keene.
Michigan enters this matchup as a 20.5-point favorite. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET at the Big House, with NBC carrying the broadcast.
