We start from the top and move our way down so keep checking in for more college football previews<\/strong><\/a> for the 2009-2010 NCAA Football Season!<\/p>\n Our 2009 NCAA Football Predictions – Teams | Analysis | Previews Online<\/strong><\/p>\n Coach:<\/strong> Rich Rodriguez The Maize and Blue had a season in 2008 that every Wolverines fan wants to put behind them. One of the most prestigious programs in the NCAA faced a tremendous amount of hiccups under RichRod\u2019s new system and the team simply didn\u2019t have the right personnel for success.<\/p>\n Michigan Wolverines Gambling Odds from Betus.com to win BCS: +12500<\/strong><\/p>\n The transition shouldn\u2019t happen overnight in Ann Arbor, but Rodriguez has brought in his own recruits and 2009 should be a step in the right direction for a throng of very demanding fans and boosters. Freshman Tate Forcier should win the QB job; he is battling fellow frosh Denard Robinson and junior Nick Sheridan. Forcier seems to have a better grasp of the offense than Robinson, and Sheridan, frankly, sucks. The offense should be more effective and less turnover-prone with a glut of sophomores instead of freshman this season. There is the Michigan athleticism you should expect on defense.<\/p>\n The highlight would likely be senior DE Brandon Graham.<\/p>\n Team Strengths<\/strong> Punter Zoltan Mesko, in addition to experience, brings a great name. I heard a commenter call him \u201cThe Leader of the Evil Empire\u201d and I laughed heartily.<\/p>\n Team Weaknesses<\/strong> Kicker Brendan Gibbons is a frosh, replacing KC \u201cLopautomatica\u201d Lopata.<\/p>\n Michigan faithful are very demanding. Though 3-9 is awful for a program of Michigan\u2019s pedigree, calling for Rodriguez\u2019s head after one season is a tad premature. Though Rodriguez will doubtlessly have pressure on him in 2009, having QBs that fit the system in Forcier and Robinson can\u2019t be underrated.<\/p>\n If the players stay healthy, disciplined and continue to immerse themselves in the spread, the Wolverines will surely have more wins this time around.<\/p>\n Check in with CappersPicks.com Best NCAA Football Sportsbook<\/strong><\/a> Review daily for exclusive College gambling bonus specials, and betting promotions.

\n2008 Record:<\/strong> 3-9<\/p>\n![\"sportsbook](\"http:\/\/media.partners.betus.com\/BANNERS\/football\/sportsbook_prefootball_250x250_mybanner1.gif\" "\\"2009")

\nThe team can\u2019t get much worse. The offensive line returns intact and their back-ups are, for the most part, highly-touted recruits. The receiving corps has playmaking ability in Martavious Odoms, Darryl Stonum and Greg Mathews. The running backs are deep and talented and I don\u2019t believe senior Brandon Minor gets enough props. The two starting corners, Donovan Warren and Boobie Cissoko, are scary athletic.<\/p>\n
\nForcier or Robinson are very much wildcards under center. They should be much better suited to running the spread than last year\u2019s starter Steven Threet, but starting a freshman at QB is always a gamble. There are new starters at safety and defensive line, and given Michigan\u2019s talent on defense, the unit has underperformed in recent seasons. That trend must reverse for sustained improvement.<\/p>\n2009 Michigan Wolverines Record Prediction: 9-4<\/h3>\n
