14 Michigan Football Players Make PFF's Preseason All-Big Ten Team

Michigan has plenty of hype entering the 2023 college football season. After going 13-1 in 2022 with a win against Ohio State in Columbus, winning the Big Ten, and making a trip to the College Football Playoff for the second year in a row -- the hype is warranted.

ESPN personalities like Rece Davis -- who had Michigan as his No. 1 team entering 2023 -- and most recently Greg McElroy shared why he loved Michigan this season. The hype train continues to roll in Ann Arbor.

It's not just the success that Michigan had a season ago that gives fans and analysts excitement. It's the amount of returning production coming back to Ann Arbor in 2023 -- more than 80%.

Which explains why there are so many Michigan players listed on PFF's preseason All-Big Ten team entering 2023.

There are 14 Wolverines listed throughout the three teams by Pro Football Focus. Michigan had seven players on the first team.
