The evolution and growth of Michigan’s passing game

Until the last week of the season, the Georgia Bulldogs were viewed as the one sure thing in college football. Week in and week out, the Bulldogs smothered opponents on the backs of defensive tackle Jordan Davis and linebacker Nakobe Dean en route to winning all 12 regular season games by an average of nearly34 points.

Davis and Dean anchor a historic front seven that pitched three shutouts and only saw five opponents score more than once. Even with a weak SEC East schedule, this level of dominance is rarely seen in a Power 5 conference.
