Sitting at #5 in the country and in the first College Football Playoff rankings, Michigan is sitting pretty as the team heads into its third straight ranked match up. Penn State comes to Ann Arbor riding high after knocking off Iowa and keeping its Big Ten hopes alive. But the Wolverines have revenge on their mind after the beatdown the Nittany Lions put on them last season, which included James Franklin attempting to score on the final play of the game while up 42-13.
Players and coaches clearly haven’t forgotten about last year. And the recruiting staff is clearly planning on it as they’ve set up another huge recruiting visit for the premier home matchup. Michigan is expected to host a very large group of visitors from the 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 recruiting classes, including multiple five stars, a couple official visitors, several commitments, and plenty of top targets that will end up donning the maize and blue. Some of which I believe may drop this weekend if things go right.
