Jim Harbaugh is back. So were some key members of the Michigan defense that had been absent for most or all of the non-conference slate.

But as some faces change, it was largely more of the same for the 2023 Michigan Football team on Saturday. It wasn’t a game super dense with style points. But it also wasn’t loaded with intrigue. For the fourth time in four tries, Michigan hosted an overmatched opponent and won comfortably.

Here’s a look at the good, the bad and the TBD from Michigan’s Big Ten debut — a 31-7 win over previously unbeaten Rutgers.
