Michigan vs. Jackson State Key Stats
The Michigan Wolverines have gotten off to a 4-1 start. Their average margin of victory in their four wins has been 14.75 points per game, however, they suffered a 25 point defeat in their only loss of the season. The Wolverines currently rank 118th out of the 363 teams in the nation in scoring, averaging 77.2 points per game. They have allowed 70.4 points per game, which ranks 215th in the nation. Their offensive rating, 108.1, ranks 127th in the nation, while their defensive rating, 98.6, ranks 216th.
The Wolverines roster has seven top-100 recruits, led by junior center Hunter Dickinson, who is averaging 20.4 points per game and 9.0 rebounds per game while shooting 60.9% from the field, and freshman guard Jett Howard, who is averaging 14.4 points per game. The latter is the son of head coach Juwan Howard, a member of the infamous Fab Five, who is in his fourth year as the Wolverines head coach. Howard was named Coach of the Year in 2020-2021, his second year with the program.
Unlike Michigan, the Tigers do not have a single top-100 recruit. They are led by sophomore guard Ken Evans and senior forward Trace Young, who are averaging 18.0 points per game and 15.0 points per game, respectively. Like the Wolverines, the Tigers are coached by a former NBA All-Star, as Mo Williams is in his first year leading the program after spending two years at Alabama State.
The winless Tigers currently rank 145th in scoring, averaging 75.3 points per game. Their defense, however, has been among the worst in college basketball, ranking 345th as they have allowed 81.3 points per game. The Tigers' offensive rating, 98.3, ranks 264th, while their defensive rating, 106.1, ranks 307th.
Michigan vs. Jackson State Betting Prediction
While the Tigers have yet to lose by double-digit figures this season, they also haven't faced an opponent as tough as the Michigan Wolverines. After being blown out by Arizona State, Michigan was able to bounce back with an underwhelming four-point victory over Ohio, in which they needed overtime to complete the job. Look for the Wolverines to get back on track by picking up a victory of at least 23 points.
Pick: Michigan Wolverines -22 (-105)
