I would absolutely not rule them out form winning the east – the schedule is far more conducive for it than it was last year. A big ten title is not off the table. This is Michigan!
The development of guys like Onwenu and Ulizio, and the potential addition of a grad transfer, will have a huge impact on the season.
The only real questions about the 2017 team is the OL and secondary. I wouldn’t give up on either unit yet – but the pressure is on the coaches.
Anyway, the difference between 8 and 10 wins is huge for Michigan.
If you are arguing that Michigan will be far better off in 2018 than 2017, I think that’s highly debatable.
