The Michigan Wolverines moved to 1-0 on the 2021 football season with a 47-14 win over Western Michigan on Saturday. Mostly everything about the effort was businesslike and what a Big Ten team should do to a MAC opponent.
Each week, we will put together grades for how each position group performed in each game. It is, of course, a sliding scale given the opponent they play. If you think that we shouldn’t grade out a group highly “because it’s Western Michigan,” we can’t really have a fair conversation about it. You would not punish someone because of how easy it was for them.
