From Under Armour Media Day:

The focus turns to 2026:

All these dates and windows and I just now learned that the window for portal entries for non-playoff teams closes today. Teams that are participating in the CFP have a window that runs to January 5, I wasn’t aware of that part.

EDIT: Thank you to @timthumb for the clarification. Per the NYT, the window is 5 days after for ANY team where their seasons do not end today. Goes for ALL teams, not just CFP.

That makes for interesting wrinkles as teams get eliminated/play for a championship.

M&BR has the latest on what Michigan's OL could look like for the Reliaquest Bowl.

Michigan basketball will play its first game in a week tonight against Western Kentucky. The Wolverines are unranked in the AP Poll but are No. 21 in KenPom. Western Kentucky is 109th.

Should be an easy victory for Michigan and Dusty May, who turns 48 tomorrow.

Tip-off is scheduled for 8 p.m. at Crisler Center. Michigan is a 20.5-point favorite.

...I sometimes get confused with the names Mason Graham and Mason Curtis or s it Cutis Mason?

Then there's the Davis brothers...Davis Warren and Jayden Davis...how'd that happen?

Just me I guess

Re-watched the RoseBowl game....more to watch Haynes than the game itself though we watched the whole game. Haynes is a LOAD. GREAT pick up.

Some people on here want to point at one thing that caused the 7-5 season. I agree except from one week to the next it was a multitude of things:

QB play was a problem

Switching QBs 4 times was a problem...lead to no rhythm

Oline play was a problem...very inconsistent...again lead to no rhythm

Multiple injuries on the oline contributed to lack of continuity

Play calling was a problem....I question if it was the Plays themselves or the combination of QB..Oline play and Injuries

I will go with play calling though lack of execution was a problem

WR room was weak...or was it the QB and oline play where-WR didn't have time to get open

The D early on gave up to many 3rd and longs...

Wink had to learn the college game...the secondary was decimated by injuries and players portaling (that's my word)

What I'm looking foward to:

BU as the QB.....there will be a learning curve...so relax

3 starting Olinemen returning and some up and coming young guys...Sherrone will get I more out of the portal

Haynes with Marshall and Hall in the RB room

Upgrading the WR room...it will be much better...

I'm curious about the interior dline....I think the light went on for Ike...Pierce and Benny ...the DEs are studs...love Barham as a DE

LB room will be awesome...love Hausman...Rolder...Sullivan...and Now Bowles

I believe in my heart of hearts Rod Moore returns...he will be huge in the secondary...love Hillman and Curtis...Metcalf was a great pick up out of the portal

J-Hill got better as the season went on though he was in the dog house for a little while....Berry was a dog at CB...played really well down the stretch...love Earls as a possible consistent contributor

Lastly...ZAVADA...NUF said about kicking...punter will work itself out in the spring.

Should be a GREAT 2025 season!

GO BLUE

Rest well President Carter. 1924-2024. The president and First Lady Roslyn were joined by Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood in my town of Mishawaka, IN where, through Habitat for Humanity, constructed 23 homes for people in need.

Thousands of volunteers joined in the project. President Carter actually referred to our Mayor as his “token Republican.”

May God bless the President and his First Lady who preceded him in death!

Right here.

Discussed what a potential impact from Mikey Keene could look like. Went down PFF analytics, stats and more.

From our Greg Smith

With Dusty set to speak to the media and the Reliaquest Bowl holding a head coach press conference tomorrow, we have hit a bit of a lull in news.

Things don’t have to be so serious all the time, so let’s do something fun!

Let’s do an off-topic Q&A and have some fun with it but try to keep it within the rules (no politics, etc.).

If you have any pressing Michigan questions you I’ll be running a normal Q&A tomorrow per usual.

Fire away, can’t wait to see how off the rails this gets.

Ryan Day is a soft moron. Needed a scapegoat.

Look at the names on this list:

Good news!

He wants a role on offensive to at WR.

This is a guy we should consider (or get into the portal).

Proven high end and productive guys are not really options for us, this could be an intriguing add.

Could just be a money play by him to stay at tennessee (since people say it isn't).

Was told that he was asked to stay for the bowl game and he did. They were in need of QB depth so Orji, realistically, is doing a favor. Good for him, though. Not many people would stick around.

I don’t know what it means for the bowl game itself, it wouldn’t be a surprise to me if he got a series or two in the game but I’m obviously not privy to the game plan nor am I going to share it even if I did 😂

Is entertaining. Tied at 28 as I'm typing this. Neither team has their defense today 😂

Nothing exciting, just stuff we didn't post other than the Underwood video. It was way too windy to get reliable video from the defensive guys today haha.
