It's the middle of October and that means the Big Ten season hits full stride this weekend. This is the time of year football traditionalists live for. It's time for three yards in a cloud of dust, smash-mouth, knock-down, drag-it-out, I've-got-more-game-than you, your-mom-went-to-Michigan-State, you-just-suck football.

Inconsistency has plagued the Michigan volleyball team this season. The Wolverines haven't been able to mount any sort of a significant winning streak. It seems as though every time they win, they lose the next match. 
'M' volleyball hopes to spike two Big Ten rivals
Assistant coach Terry Ann Zawacki began her post with the Michigan women's tennis squad last year, at the same time the outdoor courts at the Varsity Tennis Center did. The Wolverines welcomed both with open arms.
"The whole Michigan Athletic Department really helped me out when I first got here," Zawacki said. "Everyone here is really great."

Pain. It's what most athletes hate.
When you're the No. 3 team in the country, sometimes it takes a little intangible- like running on your home course- to push your team even

Wolverines invite top cross country teams to Invitational
Three years ago, the University of Michigan did not have a varsity women's crew team. They didn't have a team invitation to the NCAA
Championships, and didn't have a top 10 ranking because they simply didn't exist at the varsity level.

Last year was supposed to be the year of lowered expectations for the Michigan hockey team. The Wolverines were supposed to finish third in
the CCHA, put up a good fight at regionals, and use that experience to contend for the national title this year.
Passing the torch
The Michigan hockey team's success this season may lie on one freshman's shoulders - again.
It's a scary thought for any coach, but Michigan coach Red Berenson isn't afraid. He's done it before - twice.
