B1G program posts largest spread in program history, per report
If Vanderbilt can beat Hawai’i by 53 points, it’s not insane to think Michigan can’t. Still, I’m not sure I would take Michigan’s spread this week against the Rainbow Warriors.
The Wolverines spread against the Rainbow Warriors is +46, what one Michigan beat writer believes is the largest in program history.
Michigan vs. Hawaii (+46) may be the largest recorded spread in program history.
In 2012, the Wolverines opened as 45.5-point favorites against UMass, the largest ever at the time.

That is an absolutely absurd number. For those wondering, Howard’s 2017 win over UNLV is considered the biggest point spread victory in college football history at +45.5.
The Wolverines will be starting JJ McCarthy against the Rainbow Warriors. This being anon-conference game, it’s hard to imagine head coach Jim Harbaugh will run up the score too severely. The question is whether McCarthy will be able to do enough damage in the first half before Harbaugh takes his foot off the gas.
