In a ‘way too early’ college football bowl predictions post, ESPN’s Mitch Sherman has Michigan playing in the Foster Farms Bowl this year.
Interestingly enough the Foster Farms Bowl, which takes place in San Fransisco at Levi’s Stadium, is Jim Harbaugh former stomping grounds with the 49ers.
Maryland lost to Stanford 45-21 in last season’s Foster Farms Bowl.

If Michigan were to play in the Foster Farms Bowl, it would likely mean they finished in the middle of the Big Ten (6th or 7th) based on conference tie-ins.
Other Big Ten team bowl projections – Ohio State (CFB Playoff) and Michigan State (Rose).
In another ESPN bowl predictions article, Mark Schlabach has UM playing UCLA in the Holiday Bowl, while Brett McMurphy has the Wolverines playing Mississippi State in the Music City Bowl.
