Michigan’s loss to TCU in the College Football Playoff semifinals is still stinging for the Wolverines, it also impacted the final rankings, too.<\/p>\n
The Wolverines finished the season No. 3 in the final AP Poll and the Horned Frogs leapfrogged the Wolverines to take the No. 2 spots.<\/p>\n
Of course, national champion Georgia retains the top spot after defeating TCU 65-7 in the national championship game Monday night.<\/p>\n
According to the UM Twitter account, it’s the first time since 1947-48 that the program has finished in the top three in back-to-back seasons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Elsewhere in the Big Ten, Ohio State finishes one spot behind the Wolverines at No. 4, who missed a last-second field goal that would’ve seen the Buckeyes upset the Bulldogs in the semifinal.<\/p>\n
Rose Bowl winner Penn State finishes at No. 7 to round out the rest of the conference.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
