The Michigan Wolverines are relishing their 2023/24 NCAA campaign. The team’s on a mission to win the league and reply to all their haters. From an aerial view, the performances might seem like a dominant team playing as they should, but things get interesting when one digs deeper.

There’s some redemption going on within the Michigan Wolverines side. After embroiling in the sign-stealing controversy that saw them getting bashed from all corners, the Big Ten came down hard on the side. In November last year, the entire side was labeled “cheaters” and fraudsters and even given suspensions. The world knew how Jim Harbaugh and his players felt. Rich Eisen recently mentioned how the team would love the tag of “villains,” given all the things they went through last year.

Rich Eisen calls the Wolverines “villains” after they make it 14-0 in the NCAA competition

Rich Eisen is back with his feisty comments, and this time around, there’s no mucking around! He gets into the thick of things as he describes Michigan’s stunning victory over Alabama. He echoed the emotions of every Wolverines fan as he presented a new nickname for the side. “Right now, Michigan players believe they are the villains and they’re loving it! And I am still getting used to being the villain. It’s tough again you got to tell me how that feels, Chris. You got to tell me how it’s not tough. It’s the greatest feeling ever.”

Eisen resonated with every Michigan fan, and perhaps those of the NCAA as well, who watched the game from close quarters. The Wolverines have taken the external factors and controversies as Kryptonite, which has given them even more power! The team has battered opponents and has extended their unbeatable streak to 14! Harbaugh’s boys are chasing plenty of records this season and would be eyeing to fulfill the pending prophecy. Now with the next playoff match against Washington, Harbaugh Sr. shares his opinion about the side’s chances.
