Michigan fans are melting down over Desmond Howard picked Wisconsin to win
Published:
Things have reached a breaking point in Ann Arbor.
College GameDay analyst — and Michigan legend — Desmond Howard picked against the Wolverines in their matchup with Wisconsin on Saturday.
It’s a shock for two reasons.
First, it’s stunning that Michigan is even in this position at all — 1-2 after upset losses against Michigan State and Indiana. Its loss to the Hoosiers snapped a winning streak of 24 consecutive victories. in that series.
Second, Howard is one of the most consistent homers in all of college football. For him to pick against the Wolverines marks a new low for the current state of the program.
Here’s some of the reaction to Howard’s pick:
You know things are bad when Desmond Howard picks against Michigan.
