Michigan’s going to play Alabama in the Citrus Bowl on New Year’s Day (LINK).
Hit the jump for more.
Defensive end Michael Danna is headed to the East West Shrine Game. Danna made 35 tackles, 3 sacks, and 1 forced fumble during the regular season:

Michigan’s losing its 3rd-string punter:

Former Michigan assistant Jedd Fisch is apparently in the running for the open FAU job:
With Lane Kiffin set to take the OleMiss job expect #UK OC Eddie Gran and former Miami OC Jedd Fisch to get serious consideration for the #FAU job. Gran’s coached at Miami & FSU, and has long been regarded as one of the best recruiters in CFB, especially when it comes to Florida.

Also, the famed IMG Academy will be getting a new head coach. It’s not necessarily relevant, but it could be. Michigan always offers kids from IMG, and they occasionally land one (D.J. Turner, Cesar Ruiz, Jordan Anthony).
Big news in the high school football and CFB recruiting world — Kevin Wright is no longer the head coach at IMG Academy. Multiple players on the roster said the news was not expected. pic.twitter.com/s6vdQ94Xrj

For the national talking heads who like to say MICHIGAN is not elite, this selection & matchup is all about the MICHIGAN brand. We may not be an elite program, but our brand is needed in the world of college football
Let’s hope that Bama OL & Najee don’t abuse us too bad
