ESPN Analyst Predicts How The B1G Season Will Play Out

ESPN’s Mark Schlabach did some predictions ahead of this weekend’s start of the college football season. According to Schlabach, the Wolverines will go 11-1 and win the Big Ten.

Michigan wins the Big Ten and makes the CFP: If the Wolverines make the CFP in Year 2 under coach Jim Harbaugh, they’ll certainly earn it. They’ll probably have to win two of three road games at Michigan State, Iowa and Ohio State. But Harbaugh has built a dominant defense, and he’ll get enough from his quarterback to finish 11-1.

Schlabach also predicts Jim Harbaugh to win Coach of the Year and Rashan Gary to win Freshman of the Year.
