ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) Jim Harbaugh is in his fourth year at Michigan, where he has had time to assemble perhaps his best team.

Former Mississippi star Shea Patterson gives Harbaugh the quarterback he has been looking for since coming back to his alma mater. Patterson will have experienced running backs behind him, talent at receiver and potentially a solid offensive line. On defense, the Wolverines seem to be stacked from front to back with playmakers such as Rashan Gary and Devin Bush among the unit's nine returning starters.

"We want to be the No. 1 defense in the nation and lead all categories," Gary said.
