Larkdight Studios Kansas Jayhawks' Program Rebuild (Season 1) August 13, 2025 5:00PM CST

The Michigan Wolverines enter into their second, and final, bye week of the regular season on an absolute tear as they rip apart the competition on their way to an inevitable College Football Playoff run. Freshman sensation QB Bryce Underwood is absolutely living up to all the hype. It helps when you’re surrounded by insane talent, but also there’s something in the way Michigan recruits because the hard work always matches the talent. This team wins by committee; nobody alone is doing it all. The final game of the regular season, at home against Ohio State, is going to be electric, especially if both the Buckeyes and Wolverines are undefeated and still sitting at #1 and #2 respectfully. As important as that game is though, its just one step on the way to winning their second National Championship in the last three years.
