If you're the glass half-full type, it was another season of stellar defense in the Big Ten. Of the top 10 teams nationally in scoring defense, 5 were from the B1G.

Back just a few months ago over the summer, there weren't many who believed Michigan was capable of reaching this year's College Football Playoff.
