Michigan vs Tennessee Predictions & Picks

Michigan are tipped to cover as they secure their place in the Final Four.

The Wolverines have the size to hang with Tennessee in the paint and shoot the three-ball much better than the Volunteers – meaning they can pull away to cover.

  • Michigan are 20-2 in their last 22 games
  • Michigan are 7-4-0 ATS in their 11 games as a single digit favorite
  • Michigan are 2-0-0 ATS in their last 2 games in March Madness
  • The Under has cashed in 11 of Tennessee’s last 14 games

Head To Head

  • Michigan lead the all-time series 7-5
  • Michigan won 76-68 when the two teams last met in March 2022

Verdict

It can be argued that Tennessee have been fortunate to face a weak draw and an Iowa State team without its best player.

They now face a Michigan team that combines size and toughest with superior three-point shooting, so we are backing the Wolverines to end the Volunteers’ run.
