Buckle up, folks — the 2021 college football season is nigh!

A surefire way to know the season is approaching is that ESPN FPI actually has its predictions up of how each team will perform going game-by-game throughout the year.

While the advanced analytics suggest that Michigan football will improve upon an abysmal 2-4 season in 2021, the results certainly aren’t what the maize and blue faithful are hoping for this upcoming season. Rivalry games appear to be a point of struggle, as are road games — per usual.

However, that’s why they play games — these things aren’t decided on paper, otherwise, everything would be static on a yearly basis.

Still, here’s what ESPN FPI predicts for the 28th-ranked Wolverines in 2021.
