Jim Harbaugh did the unexpected, bringing the quarterback competition into the season and actually giving the younger player a legitimate chance to unseat the incumbent and win the job. J.J.

McCarthy and the Michigan Wolverines wrap up their less-than-daunting non-conference slate this weekend against the Connecticut Huskies. SP+ ranks UConn just two spots ahead of Hawaii with offensive and defense units outside the top 120, making this another impending slaughter.
