Ann Arbor — When Shea Patterson finally was granted immediate eligibility to play this fall for Michigan, the talk began. Most notably, he was called the “Sheavior,” the guy who could and would take the Wolverines to the Promised Land.
And here the Wolverines sit. They're No. 4 in the College Football Playoff rankings. They've won 10 straight since losing the season opener at Notre Dame by a touchdown and they're unbeaten in the Big Ten with a share of the East Division title.
They have had goals. Lots of goals. Namely, a Big Ten title, which would be the first at Michigan since 2004, and a national championship.
