We all had expectations at the beginning of the season. Being undefeated at the halfway point probably beat most Michigan fans expectations outside of Schembecler Hall. Here are the areas where Michigan either beat, met, or is less then my expectation when the season began.
Record: 6-0
This record beat my expectation starting the season. I had Michigan 5-1 with a loss to Wisconsin on the road. The must wins of Washington and Nebraska was hit and Michigan winning on the road in Madison for the first time in 20 years is a huge plus.
