Past team analogs for modern Michigan

Every team is different in its own way from personnel to personality, but in looking ahead to the first season of the Jim Harbaugh era, there are comparisons that can be drawn to year’s past. We take a look at a few previous seasons where there could be similarities to what the Maize and Blue will field this fall.

1996

Record: 8-4 (5-3)

Similarities: The 1996 team could best be described as being very good on defense and just not quite good enough on offense.
