What will our record be next year?

Submitted by MonkeyMan on January 3rd, 2015 at 6:40 PM

So what do you think our record will be at the end of regular season next year?

I would like to say undefeated but at the moment we do not have a decent QB that is proven to be good- not having a decent QB is a big drag on the offense so I will say 11-1 or 10-2 based on what I know now. Plus Meyer is at full speed at this point.

What say you?

quarterback, I look for a 2 game improvement in the transition year. If a quarterback emerges by the start of league play that can give us above average play from that position, then we could do a game or 2 better.

I have a hard time believing QB can be much worse than last year. After that schedule projects to be 1.5 wins easier, imo. Hoke to Harbaugh has to be worth at least another 1.5 wins. Anything less than 8 wins would be pretty disappointing.

Agreed. This is a better way to look at it I think because we have some challenges with recruiting and I always am positive about situations. Harbaugh can push us to win and maybe there will be some suprise players that step it up.

we will win the games we should win. With our talent and a good coach, we beat Rutgers, Minnesota, Maryland this year. That's 8 wins. With a year under Harbaugh, we win two more - with either Sparty or Ohio one of those wins at home this year. That's 10.

about right. 7 = low end. 8-9 nicely fit, and it's not out of the question to get to 10 if we get some decent QB play and not get bitten by the injury bug.

great coaching the kids will get now, and that's true, but it won't take hold over 30 practices. this will take time, far more than 1 spring and fall. I think 9 wins is the ceiling.

That's what makes this such a great situation for Harbaugh . . . almost anything will be viewed as an improvement. All he has to do is make a bowl game - any bowl game - and he's beaten last year by an order of magnitude.

I have to assume that you're also predicting the expanded playoff format next year as well, and a larger expansion that first conceived at that. Bold move indeed.

Either that, or we're playing most games twice due to temporal anamolies which will affect the planet from time to time throughout the fall. Either way, I like it.

Lol...just kind of being a smart ass because I'm sure we'll see this thread 5 times before September. I was thinking we'd win like 15 games or whatever the amount it would take to win the Playoff, then we would take on some NFL playoff teams and eventually win the Super Bowl.

that actually got me thinking about how cool it would be if they had a promotion relegation system in place from college to the nfl. if college football goes the route of paying players, and gets rid of the 4 year rule, then I see a Michigan team made up of Tom Brady and all of the best Michigan players competing for a superbowl.

I've got $100 with an OSU buddy that they go over 7.5 wins. I think that's easy money. I've got 8 wins minimum with a win over MSU or OSU.

You'll have all summer to get in on that action. My buddy works at the MGM sports book in Vegas and told me the initial win total for Michigan next year is 7.5.
