Here we go, Michigan fans! It’s almost time for Week 3 of the 2022 season!
On Saturday, the Michigan Wolverines will continue their 2022 season as they host Connecticut at the Big House in Ann Arbor.
As we all know by now, Jim Harbaugh decided to start Cade McNamara against Colorado State in Week 1 and J.J. McCarthy in Week 2 against Hawaii.
Following last week’s game against Hawaii, Harbaugh announced that J.J. McCarthy had earned the starting job.
“Yeah, J.J., he had a near flawless performance,” Harbaugh said. “11-for-12, and then one was dropped. That was tough to do. It’s tough to do any day of the week in practice. I thought he had a great game. He was playing really well. We’ll start J.J. next week.”
When asked if McCarthy had earned the starting job, Harbaugh did not hesitate.
“Yeah, by merit, he’s earned that,” Harbaugh said. “By performance. By merit.”
Now, keep in mind that Harbaugh can do whatever he wants on a week-to-week basis but for now, J.J.McCarthy will be the starting quarterback for the Michigan Wolverines.

Prediction:
For the third week in a row, the Wolverines will host a team that they should absolutely destroy and that is what will happen. That being said, 47.5 points is a lot and when the backups get in, you never know what will happen. If you want to bet on the Wolverines in this game, you will be better off betting the first-half line.
Connecticut 7
Michigan 51 (-51.5)
