Michigan just broke the record for the number of players invited to the NFL combine (previously held by LSU after the 2019 season). They had elite talent.
They had a lot of very good, very experienced talent. Of those 18, most of them will be 3rd-5th round type picks.
They were definitely talented, but that defense was a sum greater than the parts type unit because of the combination of (1) elite coaching/scheme, (2) solid talent and (3) loads of experience. They all did things right, all read plays the same way and almost never made the sorts of mistakes that 99% of college defenses routinely make.

And yet they trailed in the fourth quarter to Alabama and the Tide had a real chance to win that game in regulation.
Credit to Michigan for not making a mistake and making the plays when they had to.
