This is the 1973 Michigan Wolverines football team. They went 10-0-1, tying Ohio State in the final game of the season (the infamous M Club Banner incident). They were denied a trip to the Rose Bowl by a vote of the Big Ten athletic directors. They finished the season ranked #6 in the country. Led by All-Americans Dave Brown at safety and Dave Gallagher at right tackle, and Dennis Franklin at quarterback, they were, arguably one of Bo's finest teams.
But, look a little closer with me, won't you?
The guy in the third row, wearing #85, that's senior defensive end Dave Brandon. Perhaps you have heard of him?
The guy in the sixth row, wearing #63 and the neck roll, that's sophomore offensive guard Les Miles. Perhaps you've heard of him?
