Michigan Friday: Meet Your 2025 Captains

 


That's a strong list of leaders! Don't forget Tom Brady said, his greatest football honor was being named a Captain at the University of Michigan. 

  • Max Bredeson is mentoring Bryce Underwood and asked to be his camp roommate.
  • How did CJ Carr get the start for ND?  Per sources and Chris Hummer: "He's got the moxie. He's got the leadership. He's got that 'it' factor."
  • Pat Fitzgerald and Northwestern have come to a settlement on his dismissal. I'm shocked he is not working anywhere.
  • Hawaii Football will log nearly 30,000 air miles this season.
  • DPJ was released by the Saints after trading for Vele.
  • One sleep before Week 0 of College Football! A ranked Big 12 game!
Did you know? That Iowa Football shared the National Championship in 1958?

Iowa has long laid claim to the 1958 national championship. The Hawkeyes were recognized as national champions by the Football Writers Association of America after leading the nation in total offense. The Hawkeyes' 8-1-1 (5-1 Big Ten) campaign ended with a 38-12 Rose Bowl victory over Cal and garnered the No. 2 spot in the final Associated Press poll.

Iowa leading the nation in offense is just crazy.  The AP voted LSU National Champs that year.  With all that said, Auburn has now taken the National Championship that year for themselves.  😃

That was a (very) different era and Iowa. It's not that crazy.
