The preseason Big Ten media poll was released and the Wolverines aren't predicted to finish nearly as high as last year.
came out with the annual Big Ten preseason poll. There were 33 voters who voted and they ranged from ESPN, The Athletic, among other prominent outlets.
The Wolverines were picked to win the Big Ten last year during the same preseason poll. Michigan did just that and rolled through the Big Ten Conference the past three seasons to capture three-straight Big Ten titles. But with Michigan losing star power and the B1G gaining teams such as Oregon -- the media has dropped the expectations for Michigan in 2024. The Wolverines were picked to finish fourth in the conference behind Ohio State, Oregon, and Penn State.
Voters were also asked to predict the Big Ten Championship Game. 24 voters picked Ohio State to beat Oregon, six voters picked Oregon to beat Ohio State, two voters picked Ohio State to beat Penn State, and one voter picked Ohio State to beat Michigan. While the voters didn't foresee Michigan making it to the Big Ten Championship Game, 52% of the voters predicted the Wolverines to make the 12-team College Football Playoff in 2024.
