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.
SDE: 1. Brennen Beyer – Junior

Quarterback
Devin Gardner continues to improve at an amazing rate. The better Devin plays, the more Al Borges has opened up the playbook and there has been little drop off in play. Devin made several NFL caliber throws on Saturday that Michigan fans haven’t seen since 2007. Throwing the deep 15-20 yard out route between . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Iowa

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

Michigan reached the half-way point of its season after Saturday’s win over Illinois and now sits at 4-2 on the season. Despite returning fourteen starters, Michigan came into this season with some key questions. Through the first six games a number of those questions were answered, some continue to be the source of much debate.

Quarterback
Eliminating turnovers has been the point of emphasis for Denard Robinson since the spring. Through the early part of the season Denard had seemingly ignored what had been stressed to him by the coaching staff all off season. While Denard was responsible for a fumble a week ago, Denard has cut out the interceptions . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Illinois

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

Freshmen likely to redshirt: Mario Ojemudia – An ideal scenario would have Mario redshirting 100% of the time, but the staff might just have to throw him in there with Frank Clark likely being suspended for a good deal of time.

Micheal Schofield’s move to right tackle left a giant hole at LG. The good news is that whoever fills the position will be teamed with Michigan’s best offensive lineman Taylor Lewan. The bad news, the coaches are choosing between a career backup, a . . . → Read More: Top 5 Fall Position Battles

1. Michigan 10-2 (7-1)
2012 Forecast
IF the Wolverines can find somewhat productive replacements for Mike Martin and Ryan Van Bergen and find consistency on offense, they should have another very good season.

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
