UM football No. 6 in ESPN’s future power rankings

With back-to-back 10-win campaigns in coach Jim Harbaugh’s first two seasons, it’s more than safe to welcome back Michigan to college football’s upper echelon.

The Wolverines likely will be hanging around for a while.

ESPN unveiled its final installment of its future power rankings (pay site) on Monday, taking a look at what it says will be college football’s strongest programs over the next three years, through the 2019 season.

Michigan landed sixth on the list, based on input from Power 5 coaches and coordinators and ESPN reporters, according to Adam Rittenberg of ESPN.
