Michigan Football: 5 predictions for the Wolverines defense in 2019

Since Jim Harbaugh has arrived as the head coach of Michigan football, the Wolverines have been a pretty stellar defensive team.

Last season, Michigan football was the top-ranked defense in the country for the most of the season, until the bottom fell out during the last two games against Florida and Ohio State.

Looking back, the 2018 defense was one of the most talented units the Wolverines have had in the 20 years since winning the national championship in 1997, however, it was also a group that ultimately underachieved.

When the Big Ten championship was on the line, Ohio State went off for 62 points and a ton of yards.
