What you need to know
Michigan: Much of the dominant defensive unit that got this team to the College Football Playoff, including its dynamic pass rush duo, is gone, but don't overlook the Wolverines' returning skill pieces. Both quarterbacks are still here, with important pieces like Ronnie Bell and Andrel Anthony at receiver, and Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards out of the backfield.
Colorado State: The Rams are coming off a 3-9 mark last season and bringing on a new coach in Jay Norvell. But watch how the Rams attack the deep field with what should be an athletic group of receivers. Dante Wright returns following a 554 yard, 3 TD season in 2021, and CSU added Melquan Stovall and Tory Horton as transfers for what figures to be the best receiving corps in their division.
