Fresno State Bulldogs:

With the new 12-team playoff format in place, the Fresno State Bulldogs, who finished 9-4 last season, look to contend for the Mountain West title. Tim Skipper, the former linebackers coach and assistant head coach, was named interim head coach after Jeff Tedford stepped down on July 15 due to health concerns.

Junior QB Mikey Keene, who led the Bulldogs to the second-best passing offense in the conference in 2023, returns to Fresno State along with wide receivers Jalen Moss, a redshirt sophomore, and senior Mac Dalena. The two combined for 1,215 receiving yards last season.

Michigan Wolverines:

After a remarkable 15-0 run last season, the Michigan Wolverines enter the 2024 season as the defending champions for the first time since 1998. But with just 5 starters returning after the Wolverines had a program-record 13 players drafted to the NFL, this will be a very different team.

Sherrone Moore, the former offensive coordinator and offensive line coach took over as head coach after Jim Harbaugh left to lead the L.A. Chargers. Moore, who is the first Black head coach in program history, won all four games in which he served as acting head coach last season during Harbaugh’s suspensions.
