3. Michigan quiets critics

After the loss to Wisconsin, you would have thought the sky was falling for the Wolverines. They didn’t show much life, but the Badgers are one heck of a football team that is proving week by week that they should be in the CFP conversation. The expectations of having Jim Harbaugh as the head coach might have had everyone in a frenzy, but this week they could quiet all of that with a ranked win at home.

Michigan has all of the weapons that they need on offense and a good enough defensive front to stop the Hawkeyes from gashing them from time to time. Harbaugh will have this team ready at home and the Big House will no doubt be rocking on a Saturday afternoon.

Although the Wolverines are favored, this would still be a huge win in the conference for Michigan. A big chance for them not only to get back on track but to start competing again for a Big Ten Title. Don’t count them out just yet on the season, this could be a turning point.
