Michigan needed a second chance at a Hail Mary to beat Western Michigan, and it dropped them in the coaches poll.
Michigan needed a miracle to defeat Western Michigan. They got two chances at a Hail Mary after failing on their first attempt, but one second was put back on the clock. The second attempt was successful, and Michigan fans stormed the field.
While fans were excited about the win, coaches voting in the USA Today Coaches Poll were not inspired, dropping them in the poll, according to Aaron McMann of MLive.com.
“Michigan fell to 24th in this week’s US LBM coaches’ poll. Western Michigan is unranked, but received seven votes. Both Kyle Whittingham and Lance Taylor have votes; I’d love to know where they ranked both teams,” McMann posted on X, formerly Twitter.
This is a developing story with more to come.
