What’s an acceptable record for Michigan in 2026? Fans weigh in
Earlier this week, we asked fans what they’d consider an acceptable number of losses for the Michigan Wolverines in 2026.

Report: Michigan contacts 2 veteran linebackers seeking 5th year of NCAA eligibility
Michigan appears to be doing its homework on a pair of experienced linebackers after a recent court ruling created an unexpected pool of potential transfer portal additions. According to On3’s Ethan McDowell ($), the Wolverines have contacted former James Madison linebacker Trent Hendrick and former Western Kentucky linebacker Jaylen Wester. “Talks have not advanced far […]
Scientifically determining the better end zone at Michigan Stadium
A month from now, the focus will be squarely on the 2026 college football season, which features real expectations for the Michigan Wolverines despite all of the chaos of the offseason.

We’re into the Top 5 of our offseason series ranking the best players from the Michigan Wolverines championship in 1989 to the team that just won it in April of this year. We’ve had a bunch of Michigan Men to this point, but in the new era of college sports, we have the first guy […]
Why WR Andrew Marsh thinks Michigan Football’s pass game will be better in 2026
One of the biggest criticisms of Michigan’s offense the last two years was its inconsistent pass game. While the Wolverines leaned on a productive rushing attack, explosive pass plays were few and far between, allowing opposing defenses to crowd the line of scrimmage and make life difficult for Jordan Marshall and company. Star sophomore wide […]

How Kyle Whittingham’s improving Michigan’s strength program after shocking regression under Sherrone Moore
The Michigan Wolverines football program has had failures on and off the field over the last two years, particularly because of poor decisions made by former head coach Sherrone Moore. Moore, who was fired last December, had a strength and conditioning program that regressed mightily from the Jim Harbaugh era. When Harbaugh left to become […]
LB Troy Bowles’ path to Michigan Football, outlook for 2026
Kyle Whittingham was on The Rich Eisen Show earlier this week and expressed some concern about the second and third phases of Michigan’s defense. “Little thin in the secondary as far as guys that have accumulated a lot of reps,” Whittingham said. “Same with linebacker — we’ve got some really good young players but not […]

Friday Discussion: Are jersey patches inevitable in college football?
Earlier this week, it was announced Ohio State reached a deal with Chase Bank to put a sponsorship patch on their uniform for $15 million. Shortly after that, Notre Dame announced a partnership deal with SoFi to put a patch on their jerseys in exchange for $18-20 million. In the NIL era, this isn’t overly […]

Michigan Wolverines running back Jordan Marshall looked ahead to the 2026 season at Big Ten Football Media Days in Chicago on Thursday, and he didn’t mince words. “I’m confident enough to say I think I’m the best running back in the Big Ten,” Marshall told the media. “If you don’t have that mindset, who would […]
Why Kyle Whittingham wants an NFL-model salary cap in college football
Michigan head coach Kyle Whittingham spoke at Big Ten Football Media Days in Chicago on Thursday, and he explained why there needs to be a “seismic change” to the college football landscape in the coming years.

Michigan Football 2026 position group breakdown: Tight ends
Good tight end play has been integral to Michigan’s identity for years. It fits a familiar script — hand off the ball to the running back, pick up three yards, hand it off again, get another three yards. Third down, call a hitch or a curl and throw the ball to a big, steady-handed tight end […]
Michigan Football Coaching Spotlight: WR coach Micah Simon
Although early in his career, new Michigan wide receivers coach Micah Simon has an abundance of experience to bring to the Wolverines for 2026. Michigan hasn’t had a player have 1,000 or more receiving yards in a single season since 2013, but sophomore Andrew Marsh is in a prime position to reach that mark and […]

Michigan Football 2026 opponent preview: Penn State
When Michigan returns to action on Oct. 17 following a bye week, the Wolverines will welcome a new-look Penn State team to the Big House for the first time under head coach Matt Campbell.

LB Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng’s path to Michigan Football, outlook for 2026
There is plenty of reason for excitement and optimism surrounding the Michigan Wolverines’ defense heading into the 2026 season. With talent galore and a new coaching staff, the unit appears to be in good shape. The veterans are going to be the anchor, but this defense is going to rely on some youngsters, too. One […]
Did Michigan Hockey do enough this offseason to win a National Championship?
Another offseason, another summer of asking the same question regarding Michigan Hockey team: can it win the National Championship? Since last summiting the college hockey world in 1998, the Wolverines have reached 10 Frozen Fours, but only advanced to one title game, falling in overtime in 2011 to Minnesota-Duluth. Now, with three appearances under head […]
Kyle Whittingham: Michigan Football is a ‘little thin’ at this position
Michigan head coach Kyle Whittingham likes what he has in the Wolverines’ secondary heading into the 2026 season, but there appears to be one glaring issue entering fall camp. Speaking with Michigan alumnus Rich Eisen on his TV show on Monday, Whittingham acknowledged that while there is plenty of talent on the back end of […]
Reasonable expectations for Michigan Basketball in 2026-27 season
What’s better than a national championship? Very little. Well, maybe Taco Bell at 2 a.m., but college basketball teams don’t play for that. So by my standards, unless the 2026-27 Michigan men’s basketball season ends with a lifetime supply of Grilled Cheese Burritos being awarded to the Wolverines, it will be hard for Michigan to […]
