Michigan gas price average slides 6 cents since last week

DEARBORN, Mich. (WLUC) – Drivers may notice slight relief with the price of gas as the state average has dropped 6 cents over the past week.

AAA of Michigan reports that drivers are now paying an average of $3.51 per gallon for regular unleaded gas. This price is 18 cents less than this time last month and 3 cents less than this time last year. The state average is still slightly above the national average which is $3.45 per gallon.

Motorists are paying an average of $52 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline; a discount of about $6 from 2023′s highest price last August.

“Michigan motorists are seeing lower gas prices across the state,” said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. “If demand falls, alongside rising supply, pump prices may continue to decrease.”

In the Upper Peninsula, the lowest average is in Baraga County at $3.34 per gallon. The highest is in Mackinac County at $3.75 per gallon.

Will Mikey Keene be Michigan’s Week 1 starting quarterback in 2025?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Michigan Wolverines fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.

Michigan now has a veteran quarterback in the fold for the 2025 season. On Monday afternoon, Fresno State transfer QB Mikey Keene committed to the Wolverines.

Keene had a 70.5 completion percentage in 2024 with 2,892 yards with 18 touchdowns and 11 interceptions at Fresno State. Keene was at Central Florida for his first two years and is familiar with Michigan’s new offensive coordinator, Chip Lindsey. Lindsey was Central Florida’s offensive coordinator in 2022 while Keene was at UCF. Keene fared well in ‘22 with Lindsey when he saw the field, throwing for 647 yards, six touchdowns and one interception with a 72.3 completion rate.

Does Keene’s veteran presence and familiarity in Chip Lindsey’s scheme give him the edge to ultimately be named Michigan’s starting quarterback in Week 1 against New Mexico next season? Or will the 2025 No. 1 overall prospect and No. 1 QB Bryce Underwood prove to be ready to roll right out of the gate? Vote below.

Whether Keene winds up starting or not he was brought in to compete with Underwood and receive a shot at the starting position in 2025. Keene, who stands 5-foot-11, 200 pounds, will be entering his fifth collegiate season in 2025 and has amassed 8,245 passing yards, 65 touchdowns and 28 interceptions in his career with a 67.8 completion percentage.
