5 Questions facing Michigan football in Week 1

How will the defense look this year compared to last year?

Another thing to pay attention to during the CSU game is what, if any, changes were implemented in the scheme for Jesse Minter and how it compares to last year’s defensive unit under Mike MacDonald.

Who will emerge as the leaders on defense? Will there be any true breakout campaigns this year from the defensive line?

Will Gemon Green have a bounce back year? Can DJ Turner become more consistent to be a true No. 1 corner?

The hope is having a new coordinator will bring a few new fresh ideas to the table. We should largely expect the same scheme as last year, but there should be a few adjustments and the hope is this will help the pass rush get home and for Michigan to create more turnovers.
