2018 University of Michigan Football Season Predictions

Yeah, it’s me, the “basketball guy”, back for more. It’s time for my annual attempt to predict how the University of Michigan’s football season is going to go.

Last Season (2017)

My Prediction: 10-2 (8-1 in Big Ten)

Actual Results: 8-4 (5-4)

Comments: After doing a great job predicting the 2016 season, I was terrible last season. I thought we’d beat Michigan State, Penn State, and Ohio State, and I thought we’d lose to Florida. Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong.

This Season (2018)

My Prediction: 8-4 (6-3 in Big Ten)

Comments: As usual, I worry about “first game jitters” in the opener against Notre Dame, and I think Wisconsin, Penn State, and Ohio State are all too strong for us. I’m picking a win in the big Michigan State game because we’ve been robbed too many times in the last 4-5 years, and we’re due.

Go Blue!
