Everyone can be wrong and for 99% of fans and media pundits alike, we were wrong about the 2021 Michigan Wolverines.
Before the season, the Wolverines were unranked in the Coaches and AP Polls and the over/ under wins total according to William Hill Sportsbook was 7.5. ESPN’s FPI (Football Power Index) projected Michigan to win 6.8 games and lose 5.2.
To quote William Goldman: “Nobody knows anything.”
The consensus across the fanbase seemed to be seven wins, but there were still doomsdayers in the comment sections across multiple websites predicting only three wins.
