Statistical advantages
Oregon has the higher observed scoring average: Michigan scores 23.0 points per game and Oregon scores 41.0, a 18.0-point difference. These are unadjusted season averages, not an estimate of this game's winning margin.
Michigan allows 15.8 points per game, compared with 22.0 for Oregon. Michigan has the stronger defensive scoring figure by 6.2 points per game. Opponent quality and game situations can affect this comparison; a better raw rank is not proof of a better adjusted defense.
Michigan's offense produces 315.8 yards per game; Oregon's defense has conceded 344.4. The 28.6-yard difference compares two observed averages rather than predicting a yardage total. Michigan averages 5.39 yards per play, which puts it #108 among 138 covered teams.
Key matchup factors

Turnover differential / game is another measurable difference: Michigan records -0.80, while Oregon records 0.20. Higher is better for this metric. Compare the sample counts in the table before treating a difference as stable.
