In their third season under head coach Bo Schembechler, the Wolverines compiled an 11–1 record, outscored opponents 421 to 83, won the Big Ten Conference championship, and were ranked #4 in the final Coaches Poll and #6 in the final AP Poll. Frank Gusich and Guy Murdock were the team captains. The Wolverines were undefeated in the regular season, including three consecutive shutout victories over Virginia (56–0), UCLA (38–0), and Navy (46–0). Two later victories over Indiana (61–7) and Iowa (63–7) were the Wolverines' highest point totals since a 69-point tally in 1947. The Michigan-Ohio State game set an NCAA record with a crowd of 104,016 at Michigan Stadium. In the 1972 Rose Bowl, Michigan lost to Stanford, 13–12, on a field goal with 12 seconds remaining. Four Michigan players received first-team honors on the 1971 College Football All-America Team. They are:
Linebacker Dana Coin set an NCAA record by successfully converting 55 of 55 extra points without a miss during the 1971 season. He was also the team's leading scorer with 79 points. Pre-seasonThe 1970 Michigan team compiled a 9–1 record and was ranked #7 in the final Coaches Poll and #9 in the final AP Poll. The 1970 team was not permitted to accept a bowl invitation, as Big Ten policy prescribed that the Rose Bowl was the only bowl game in which a conference team could participate. In March 1971, Michigan coach Bo Schembechler launched a public campaign to change the Big Ten's restrictive bowl participation policy. He noted that lesser teams had played in major bowl games and said, "It was a crime what happened to us last season. We were the greatest team in the country not to play in a bowl game."[1] The conference eventually rescinded its one-bowl policy in 1975. Schembechler also spoke in opposition to the extension of the football schedule from 10 to 11 games for the 1971 season: "I think the NCAA made a mistake in going to 11 games. . . . I love the game and I love to coach it but I also realize that in college they still have to go to school. . . . it does take away somewhat from their academic pursuits. I was concerned about that."[2] Important players lost from the 1970 team included quarterback Don Moorhead, who had set 24 school records, including those for most yards of total offense and most passing yards. The candidates to take Moorhead's spot as the team's starting quarterback included Tom Slade, Kevin Casey, and Larry Cipa.[3] After the first spring scrimmage, Schembechler criticized the play of his quarterbacks: "We have a lousy offense. We're going to have to run the ball every play."[4] Slade and Casey ended up starting eight and four games, respectively. Cipa was the only one of the trio who went on to play quarterback in the NFL. Other key players lost from the 1970 season included offensive lineman Dan Dierdorf, middle guard Henry Hill, and linebacker Marty Huff.[5] Michigan was ranked #4 in the final pre-season poll.[6] RecruitingMichigan's recruiting class for 1971 included quarterback Dennis Franklin, running backs Chuck Heater and Gil Chapman, defensive back Dave Brown, linebacker Steve Strinko, and offensive lineman Dennis Franks. Chapman was the most heralded rookie back, having scored 564 points in high school.[6] Schedule{{CFB schedule| rankyear = 1971 | poll = AP Poll / Coaches Poll released prior to game | timezone = Eastern |{{CFB schedule entry | date = September 11 | time = | w/l = w | away = y | rank = 4/NA | opponent = Northwestern | opprank = 20/NA | site_stadium = Dyche Stadium | site_cityst = Evanston, IL | tv = | score = 21–6 | attend = 42,472 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = September 18 | time = | w/l = w | nonconf = y | rank = 4/5 | opponent = Virginia | site_stadium = Michigan Stadium | site_cityst = Ann Arbor, MI | tv = | score = 56–0 | attend = 81,391 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = September 25 | time = | w/l = w | nonconf = y | rank = 4/4 | opponent = UCLA | site_stadium = Michigan Stadium | site_cityst = Ann Arbor, MI | tv = | score = 38–0 | attend = 88,042 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 2 | time = | w/l = w | nonconf = y | rank = 2/2 | opponent = Navy | site_stadium = Michigan Stadium | site_cityst = Ann Arbor, MI | tv = | score = 46–0 | attend = 68,168 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 9 | time = | w/l = w | away = y | rank = 2/2 | opponent = Michigan State | site_stadium = Spartan Stadium | site_cityst = East Lansing, MI | gamename = Paul Bunyan Trophy | tv = | score = 24–13 | overtime = | attend = 80,093 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 16 | time = | w/l = w | rank = 3/3 | opponent = Illinois | gamename = series | site_stadium = Michigan Stadium | site_cityst = Ann Arbor, MI | tv = | score = 35–6 | attend = 73,406 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 23 | time = | w/l = w | away = y | rank = 3/3 | opponent = Minnesota | gamename = Little Brown Jug | site_stadium = Memorial Stadium | site_cityst = Minneapolis, MN | tv = | score = 35–7 | attend = 44,176 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = October 30 | time = | w/l = w | homecoming = y | rank = 3/3 | opponent = Indiana | site_stadium = Michigan Stadium | site_cityst = Ann Arbor, MI | tv = | score = 61–7 | attend = 75,751 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 6 | time = | w/l = w | rank = 3/3 | opponent = Iowa | site_stadium = Michigan Stadium | site_cityst = Ann Arbor, MI | tv = | score = 63–7 | attend = 72,467 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 13 | time = | w/l = w | away = y | rank = 3/3 | opponent = Purdue | site_stadium = Ross–Ade Stadium | site_cityst = West Lafayette, IN | tv = | score = 20–17 | attend = 56,485 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = November 20 | time = | w/l = w | rank = 3/3 | opponent = Ohio State | gamename = rivalry | site_stadium = Michigan Stadium | site_cityst = Ann Arbor, Michigan | tv = | score = 10–7 | attend = 104,016 }} |{{CFB schedule entry | date = January 1, 1972 | time = | w/l = l | nonconf = y | neutral = y | rank = 3/3 | opponent = Stanford | opprank = 16/16 | gamename = Rose Bowl | site_stadium = Rose Bowl | site_cityst = Pasadena, CA | tv = NBC | score = 12–13 | attend = 103,154 }} }} Season summaryWeek 1: at Northwestern{{AFB game box start|Title= |Visitor=Michigan |V1=0 |V2=7 |V3= 14|V4=0 |Host=Northwestern |H1=0 |H2= 0|H3=0 |H4=6 |Date=September 11 |Location=Dyche Stadium • Evanston, Illinois |StartTime= |TimeZone= |ElapsedTime= |Attendance=42,472 |Weather= |Referee= |TVAnnouncers= |TVStation= }} {{AFB Game Box Scoring Entry |FirstEntry=yes |Quarter=2 |Time= |Team=MICH |Event=Rather 18-yard run (Coin kick) |Score= Michigan 7–0}} {{AFB Game Box Scoring Entry |Quarter=3 |Time= |Team= MICH|Event=Rather recovered fumble in end zone (Coin kick) |Score= Michigan 14–0}} {{AFB Game Box Scoring Entry |Quarter=3 |Time= |Team= MICH |Event=Taylor 5-yard run (Coin kick) |Score= Michigan 21–0}} {{AFB Game Box Scoring Entry |Quarter=4 |Time= |Team=NW |Event=Cooks 2-yard pass from Daigneau (run failed) |Score= Michigan 21–6|LastEntry=yes}}{{AFB game box end}}Michigan opened its 1971 season with a 21–6 victory over Northwestern in front of 42,472 spectators at Dyche Stadium in Evanston, Illinois.

In the 1972 rematch, Michigan was ranked #3 in the country and favored by 10½ points. Michigan's Dana Coin kicked a 30-yard field goal in the second quarter for the only first half scoring. In the first series of the second half, Stanford stopped the Wolverines on fourth and one at Stanford's four-yard line, then tied the game on a 42-yard field goal. Early in the fourth quarter, Michigan's Fritz Seyferth scored on a one-yard dive to put Michigan up 10–3. After Stanford got the ball back, the Indians faced fourth and ten from their own 33. Stanford ran a fake punt, with Jim Kehl receiving the snap and handing the ball forward to Jackie Brown through Brown's legs. Brown ran 33 yards for a first down, and followed up a minute later with a 24-yard touchdown run to tie the game. Late in the fourth quarter, Michigan recovered a Stanford fumble near midfield. Facing fourth down with time running down, the Wolverines attempted a 42-yard field goal. The kick was short, and Stanford safety Jim Ferguson caught the ball and attempted to run it out of the end zone. Instead, he was knocked back into the end zone by Ed Shuttlesworth for a controversial Michigan safety, as replays seemed to show that Ferguson's forward progress was to the three-yard line. This made the score 12–10 with just over three minutes to play, and Michigan due to get the ball on a free kick.
