Michigan’s defense has been the surprise story to start the 2024-25 season. The Wolverines, who finished 182nd in defensive efficiency last season and haven’t finished better than 47th since 2020-21, are currently ranked 10th nationally in adjusted defensive efficiency through the season’s first month. The defense also checks in at 11th on BartTorvik with preseason priors removed.
Here are ten stats that illustrate Michigan’s defensive strategy and its effectiveness to this point.
