Michigan Football and Sports Illustrated

The table below lists all of the instances which Michigan football has made it onto a Sports Illustrated cover (both for good reasons and for bad reasons).  The current streak in 2003 is incredible:  3 covers since September, including consecutive weeks.

 

The best covers for Michigan fans?  Well, it has to be the December 1, 1997 cover where Marcus Ray is shown sending Ohio State loudmouth David Boston for the ride of his life.  It also clearly spells out who is #1.  The next?  The December 1, 2003 cover with Chris Perry is real nice, but I'd have to give the nod to Desmond Howard's first cover (of three lifetime) from September 23, 1991 that reads, "Hail, Hail", after Michigan "conquers" Notre Dame.  Old school folks might prefer the 1976 close up of quarterback Ricky Leach.
