The Michigan Wolverines had the best defense in the nation in 2023, will it stack up in 2024?
After an offseason that saw one of the best head coaches in college football, Jim Harbaugh, heading to the NFL, one might expect a severe downturn for last year’s national champions Michigan.
Michigan will not only have a strong defense to throw at Ewers but the backing of the raucous Big House crowd behind their backs. Looking ahead to week two, who are the players to look out for on the defensive side of the ball for the Wolverines?Jan 8, 2024; Houston, TX, USA; Michigan Wolverines defensive back Will Johnson celebrates with the championship trophy after defeating the Washington Huskies during the 2024 College Football Playoff national championship game at NRG Stadium.
When was the last time a cornerback was taken top five in the NFL Draft? 2022, when Texans star Derek Stingley and All-Pro corner Sauce Gardner were taken by the Jets back-to-back. The rising junior is still young, and you would be seen as crazy if you didn’t call him the best cornerback in the nation heading into the year. Good luck throwing to his side of the field, Quinn!Michigan defensive lineman Mason Graham looks to tackle Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr.
Not only was Mason Graham noted as the best interior defensive lineman heading into the season by 247 Sports, but that same big board from PFF has him ranked higher than Johnson, being ranked the No. 2 overall player in the 2025 class.
