I think if Shea gets to play, they have enough talent and pieces on both sides of the ball to win all of their games. As someone stated above though, they have to have and keep the mindset. Even if they lose one game, they cant give it up. It's truthfully up to them in how hard they want to work here in the next half year before 2018 season and what their mindset is going to be. If these guys come in believing and knowing they have it, then I really believe they will do it. The only team that ever really truly beats Michigan is Michigan themselves the last two years. Once they get over that hump, you'll see the difference.

Technically speaking they did.

 

Auburn and Alabama tied for the SEC West Championship with 7-1 conference records.  Auburn won the tiebreakers to determine who represents the east in the SEC Championship game by virture of the head to head victory of Alabama.

 

OSU won the east in 2015 and 2016 as well, they just didn't have the tiebreakers to represent the division in the conference championship game those years due to losing head to head against MSU and PSU.

Alright. He made a prediction. Time for him to get to work and get ready to back it up.

Just win Tarik!

Don't worry about a national championship though, worry about winning each week, beating rivals, and then winning Big Ten Championship first. Take care of business in the present. It's not one giant leap, it's a ton of tiny steps. Better today than yesterday, better tomorrow than today.

People complained when Brady Hoke stated that his preseason goal for the team was to win Big Ten championships. They cried out, "Shouldn't we aim higher? Shouldn't our goal be national championships? How can we win that if we're settling for less out the outset?" So now Black aims high and that's a problem. Make up your minds!
