Question regarding ranking within the teams - when multiple players are listed under the same position for a given 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th team (such as 4 people for OL), is it safe to assume that they are listed in order of their evaluations within the teams?

Michigan has four defensive players on the first team. The game at the bank this fall has the promise of being an elite one.

IMO Michigan will be 4-2 entering that game. Important one to win for us to have an elite season

Stole my thought. Should be incredible.

How is Trey Sermon 1st team RB? How?

 

[skiumah1]

Where is my guy St. Juste? Gonna be a big year for him. I think this is something that motivates him.

 

[Jeshurun]

We have one player in the 4 deeps on defense? I’m not super high on our D either, but I bet that will look different at year end.

Agreed. St. Juste and Mafe have a great shot IMO. Oliver if healthy. Given all the talent brought in recently, there will likely be at least one breakout star as well. I've always loved Cheney's tape.
