I understand most of us keep saying”this has to be the year.” As most of us know, the”year” I’m talking about is that the season Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh eventually defeats Ohio State University. Harbaugh will have three 10-win seasons in 3 years at Ann Arbor however is vs the Buckeyes.
If there is a calendar year, since Ohio State has a new quarterback, a new coach, and the Wolverines yield plenty of talent, it’s going to have to be this year. Michigan brings eight starters on offense with just six of them being all-conference in their own position.
In case you have discovered my Against All Odds podcast using Cousin Sal, I chased Michigan quarterback Shea Patterson for Heisman last year and I am doing it again this season. This is the one quarterback who will win the Heisman even though his statistics aren’t off the charts.
Patterson’s direction is incontrovertible, and when the Wolverines stay in contention for the tournament when beating the likes of Notre Dame and Ohio State and put up 11 wins, then he wouldn’t only be the toast of the town, in fact the whole state of Michigan could have him penciled in to the hardware.
Patterson had the most passing touchdowns for a Michigan quarterback (22) since Chad Henne in 2006. He was second at the Big Ten Conference in passing efficiency. His teammates and patterson were converting them an percent of the time.
Michigan includes four coming quite and linemen the duo in Nico Collins and Donovan Peoples-Jones . Both combined for 1,250 yards and 14 touchdowns last season. Running backs Zach Charbonnet and Christian Turner will discuss time.
This Michigan offense was second in the conference whilst putting up 35 points a game (10 more a match than the 2017 group ) and might be much more potent this effort.
Defensively they’d the second-best pass protection in the nation and also were No. 1 in yards allowed. The Wolverines are incredibly proud of submitting a protection. Defensive Josh Metellus returns for his senior season back. Michigan was directed by metellus with three interceptions and was tops in passes defended.
They could run the table to get Harbaugh although this Michigan group is so piled, not only may the Wolverines get to 10 wins. But, their schedule is far from an easy one.
They will get challenges as they need to visit Madison, Wisconsin to carry on a scrappy Badger team and play with an Army team which took Oklahoma to overtime. The next week in the middle of the season, they’re in Happy Valley, Pennsylvania and then get Notre Dame. Penn State might be down a little year as the Nittany Lions replace quarterback only and Trace McSorley return one all-conference participant. Revenge is about the Wolverines’ minds not only as well. Michigan dropped seven to the Irish last season yet this season’s game is in the Big House.
Finally, we come to the showdown vs Ohio State on November 30 in Ann Arbor. I feel Michigan will have a minimum of 10 wins by then but it’s possible they’ll need the Buckeye game to go OVER 10 wins. Thus, we could desire Harbaugh to finally conquer the Buckeyes to win this bet.
Loads of prognosticators (me included) thought this past year was that the time Harbaugh could do it versus Ohio State but instead the Buckeyes hung 62 on them at the Horseshoe. This is a different Michigan group which hasn’t forgotten the past year’s result. Harbaugh and Michigan get revenge to the Buckeyes in a way and also Patterson and the defense leading the way, this group qualify for your College Football Playoff and could reach 12 wins.
