Friday Discussion: Who is most at fault for Michigan’s disastrous start?
Following Michigan’s loss to Iowa, Kyle Whittingham stated in a press conference that he felt like his team was 0-4, despite their 3-1 record. Following one of the ugliest football games in Michigan history, the Wolverines are now 3-2 on the season, with two objectively bad losses. Whittingham must feel like he’s 0-5 now. While […]
Resetting expectations for Michigan football, and its schedule, a month into the season
Obviously, this is not where the Michigan Wolverines expected to be during their bye week. Year 1 under a new regime — especially after whatever the past two seasons were — could reasonably be expected to have some bumps, and maybe a stumble against Iowa was not completely impossible to foresee, but to be (just […]
Michigan Hockey: Wolverines look to build momentum before Denver rematch
Michigan hockey is undefeated, No. 2 in the nation, and back in action this weekend with a two-game home stand against Alaska Anchorage (0-2). If any football team wants to complain about bad travel, don’t mention it to the Seawolves, who are traveling nearly 4,000 miles for this weekend’s matchup. Last weekend, Michigan dominated Bowling […]
Michigan Basketball’s national title run ‘built’ Elliot Cadeau, Trey McKenney for bigger roles
The Michigan Wolverines took home the national championship last season behind the most dominant frontcourt in the country, but backcourt tandem Elliot Cadeau and Trey McKenney also played a pivotal part in cutting down the nets. A year later, Cadeau and McKenney are set to step into bigger roles and become the leaders of the […]
Maybe Tommy Carr should be Michigan’s QB1, but not against Penn State or Indiana
Heading into a bye week and fresh off the worst offensive performance since its 2024 loss to Illinois, Michigan’s offensive players and staff have had a couple of days to let that reality sink in. Once thought to be an offensive unit that could take a big leap coming into the season, taking a leap […]
How to watch: Georgia vs Alabama, other top games during Michigan’s bye week
Following consecutive losses to Iowa and Minnesota, the Michigan Wolverines’ bye week couldn’t have come at a better time.

3 bold predictions for the rest of the Michigan Football season
Well, we have reached what feels like rock bottom. At roughly 6:45 p.m. on Sept. 26, it looked like the Michigan Wolverines were about to improve to 4-0 with their second ranked win of the season and the offense hitting its stride.

Why Michigan QB Bryce Underwood’s road game struggles are concerning
With eight home games this season, the Michigan Wolverines have only four road games in 2026. They lost their first road tilt last Saturday, 20-14 against Minnesota, and have remaining road games versus Rutgers, Oregon, and Ohio State. Michigan will be massive underdogs in two of those — Oregon and Ohio State. If Michigan’s to […]
Michigan players say goal for rest of season is to ‘win out’
Heading into the bye week, no one likely expected Michigan to be in the situation it’s in. The Wolverines are staring down a 3-2 record that includes being winless in Big Ten play through two games. Team morale is low, and the locker room is seemingly starting to crumble ever so slightly with the Instagram […]
Michigan’s football season looks all but dead, but finding the real culprit is not so easy
We all feel pretty frustrated and demoralized right now, as the Michigan Wolverines slump into their bye week at 3-2. The first loss felt unlucky, but maybe not completely unfair after the miraculous escape in Week 1, but there was really nothing to look at except into the mirror after last weekend’s catastrophe at Minnesota […]
Michigan WR says OC Jason Beck’s message to offense is ‘do a little bit more’, but lots must change
The Michigan Wolverines limped into their bye week, losing their last two games and now sitting at 3-2 on the season. If Michigan is to turn their season around, a lot has to be cleaned up. Michigan receiver J.J. Buchanan, who’s been one of Michigan’s lone bright spots on offense this season, acknowledged that Michigan’s […]
Michigan Football’s offensive line is looking to get ‘downhill’ run game going
The Michigan Wolverines are coming off a disastrous 20-14 loss to the Minnesota Golden Gophers last week, and a truly abysmal performance from the offense was the biggest factor in suffering a second consecutive setback. Not only did the rushing attack continue to struggle as it has throughout the start of this season, but the […]

Michigan Football Film Room: Bryce Underwood Regresses vs. Minnesota
Surprisingly, Michigan’s 20-14 loss to Minnesota wasn’t the worst part of my weekend. In a world where contrarian takes dominate all topical discourse, one of the few unassailable, universally agreed-upon sentiments remains; moving sucks. Sure, a new home and/or zip code is always exciting, but the arduous process of loading up your entire life and […]
