Staff Predictions: Michigan vs. Alabama in the ReliaQuest Bowl 

It’s throwback week in Ann Arbor as Michigan prepares to face Alabama in the ReliaQuest Bowl, hearkening back to the days when the Wolverines fielded a junior varsity team. We don’t remember exactly when that was — we’ll turn to our John Borton, who was a fledgling reporter on the beat back then, to fill in the details — but we know there was one, and that it was made up of guys who didn’t play varsity.
