Friday Discussion: Does Michigan realistically have any chance at the CFP anymore?
Through one-third of the regular season, the Michigan Wolverines are 3-1. Before the season, many thought that would be a realistic possibility, but a disappointing possibility at that.

Michigan Football looking to correct OL penalties ahead of Minnesota game
Through four weeks of play, the offensive line has been arguably the most disappointing position group for Michigan.

Michigan Football continues to emphasize generating ‘elusive’ turnovers
There aren’t many flaws of the Michigan Wolverines’ defense through four games this season.

A lot of things were looking good for the Michigan Wolverines against Iowa this past weekend…until suddenly it all fell apart.

It’s still early in the year, but Michigan hasn’t played the brand of Kyle Whittingham-coached football that was expected during the offseason.
