Much has been made of the Michigan Wolverines’ schedule to date, but those who are quick to dismiss the team’s dominance because of opponent quality are badly out of touch. Metrics like SP+ — which has Michigan best in the nation — account for level of competition and have proven to be good predictors of future performance. To say there is nothing to be learned from the first six weeks is somewhere between disingenuous and extremely ignorant.
The Wolverines have dismantled three straight Big Ten opponents and look to make it four in a row against the Indiana Hoosiers on Saturday.
