Michigan football is one day away from taking the field against Maryland. The Wolverines are a two-touchdown favorite, and we offered up three reasons why they will avoid the upset.
If they can do that, Michigan should be in a strong position to make the College Football Playoff, after being ranked 18th earlier this week. The Wolverines have to leap about eight spots, but with No. 1 Ohio State on the schedule, it feels like two wins will get them there.
On the recruiting trail, Michigan football could be adding a 26th commitment to the 2026 class.
