Coaches Poll: Michigan climbs back into Top 10 in latest rankings

The Wolverines have stacked three straight wins, and it's paid dividends in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll!

After a dominant first half against Minnesota, Michigan football had to battle and survive a second half comeback in its 27-24 victory over the Golden Gophers on Saturday afternoon in Ann Arbor.

While the Wolverines victory over Minnesota wasn't as convincing as many thought, it was the 27th consecutive win for Michigan against Big Ten opponents, and U-M's third straight victory since falling to Texas in Week 2. As a result, Michigan has climbed back into the Top 10 of the latest US LBM Coaches Poll, moving up two spots to No. 10 in the nation.
