One of the biggest days of the year in Ann Arbor is the season opener of the football season. Michigan students just all got to campus, classes are in full swing and there’s a buzz around campus that builds heading into that opening Saturday.
The home opener against Western Michigan is not a huge non-conference matchup that worries Wolverine fans, knowing they are favored by nearly 30 points. However, the last day fans had the feeling of a victory was Nov. 11, 2017. That would be 300 days and the one stat people in college football bring up; a four-game losing streak and 9-9 in the last 18 games.
