Michigan's Fate In The Final Bracketology Projection

Michigan has some things working in its favor and some things working against it as Selection Sunday nears.

Michigan isn't a lock for the NCAA Tournament, but it would definitely be more surprising if they didn't make than if they did. Obviously March Madness is always a great time of year filled with great games, upsets, and historical runs, and hopefully for Michigan fans, the Wolverines will be a part of it.
