Why the Michigan Wolverines Will Make the College Football Playoff in 2025

Yes, the Wolverines can still make the College Football Playoff. The season has yet to begin, but oddsmakers feel the Wolverines will improve on the team that stumbled last season. Donaven McCulley is the newest transfer, who will look to replicate the stats he had for the Indiana Hoosiers two seasons ago, when he had 48 receptions for 644 yards and six touchdowns. 

 

 

 

Why The Michigan Wolverines Might Miss The Playoffs

The Michigan football team that won the National Championship two seasons ago is not the same as the current iteration. Nobody expected them to struggle badly in the  Michigan vs Texas matchup, losing 31-12 in a game that could've gone much worse.

Is was growing pains for new head coach Sherrone Moore? Will that trend continue? 

The Wolverines will likely have Bryce Underwood, a true freshman, leading the charge. Michigan will also have a new running back named Justice Haynes. Will they both be enough to get Michigan back to the playoffs?

Michigan Wolverines History in the College Football Playoff

Michigan has made the College Football Playoff semifinals in three of the past four seasons. However, they took a tumble last season, missing it for the first time. Can Michigan bounce back and make it?
