I expect the 2013 defense to be strong once again despite losing some solid contributors such as Jordan Kovacs, Will Campbell, Craig Roh, Kenny Demens, and JT Floyd. Here is how I see the 2013 depth chart shaking out with no true freshman included.

Quarterback
Denard Robinson remained sidelined thanks to the wrath of the elbow gods and Devin Gardner saw his 2nd start of the season. There were thoughts after last week that Gardner’s performance was simply the result of playing a weak opponent in Minnesota. Those ideas where put to rest on Saturday as Devin led Michigan . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Northwestern

Quarterback
The QB play wasn’t always pretty on Saturday, but Denard Robinson made enough plays in the end with both his arm and his legs to put Michigan in position to win the game. Robinson completed just 48% of his passes on the day but converted some critical 3rd down passes to extend drives. Denard . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Little Brother

Quarterback
There’s no doubt that Denard Robinson improved this off season, in both the run and passing game. Denard’s footwork, mechanics, and decision making have all improved and are as good as they’ve been since he arrived at Michigan. With all that said, there are still moments when Denard reverts back to . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: UMass

2012 Game Preview-Alabama
What to watch on offense
Since taking over the Crimson Tide in 2007, the running game has been hallmark of Alabama’s offense under Nick Saban. While Saban and Co. have spoken publicly about opening up the offense and throwing the ball more, the running game still figures to play the leading role . . . → Read More: Cowboys Classic Game Preview

The secondary is a position Michigan has had a lot of trouble recruiting over the recent years. Despite that, this is an area of strength for Team 133 as they return all key contributors from a year ago. Let’s take a look at the projected depth chart for the 2012 season.

Quarterback
Players at Michigan are ultimately judged by how they perform against Ohio. While all position groups have to deal with an added level of expectation against the Buckeyes, no position group endures more pressure than the QBs. QBs are judged above all else by their record and performance against Ohio. For much of the . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Ohio

Meaningful games in November, something we’ve been missing around here for awhile.
Sure it would take an even more than typical Sparty meltdown for Michigan to find itself in Indy the first weekend in December; but a 10-2 record and perfect 8-0 home record for the first time in the 132 years of Michigan . . . → Read More: Nebraska Game Prediction

Quarterback
The QBs really didn’t have to do much in this game thanks to the play of the RBs. Denard opened up the game red hot going 6-6 through the air. Some of the same bad habits that have gotten him into trouble all season crept back in after the hot start. When pressured, Denard . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Illinois

Quarterback
This was by the most efficient day for the quarterbacks that we’ve seen all season. It wasn’t a huge day statistically through the air or the ground but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. The offense has been dependent on the play of the QB for the entire year. Saturday was the first game . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Purdue

Quarterback
Saturday was just a rough day for the QB position across the board. While the QB play was heavily influenced by other factors, the QBs didn’t play well on their own. It is certainly difficult to make plays while under constant duress but even on plays where there was time and open receivers, both . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Michigan State

Quarterback
I’ve debated long and hard on how to grade Denard’s performance from this game. On the one hand he really struggled to execute in the passing game, there were horrible throws which were matched with even worse decisions. On the other hand Denard was asked to do things that he has long struggled with . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Notre Dame

Head Coach Brady Hoke:
On Consistency: Team needs more consistency. Defense will be good one day and mediocre the next. Saturday, everyone was really physical. There hasn’t been one practice in my opinion that team didn’t show intensity.
