Saturday's matchup at USC is a major swing game this season for the Wolverines, who have a favorable schedule the following five games.

Michigan entered 2025 with higher expectations. The defense lost a number of top playmakers, but remains one of the best in college football, and while true freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood hasn't taken the sport by storm quite yet, he's a marked upgrade over the players the Wolverines had under center last season.

The Michigan Wolverines desperately needed a big bounce back win after the disappointing 31-13 showing against USC and that's exactly what they earned. Sherrone Moore and the entire Michigan team looked like they were on a mission from snap one as the team looked like an old school Wolverines

Nebraska is 5-1 under third-year coach Matt Rhule. Kirk Herbstreit says he’s rooting for Nebraska’s resurgence. The Cornhuskers face only one ranked team the rest of the season.

Michigan held Washington’s explosive playmakers in check and beat the Huskies 24-7 Saturday at Michigan Stadium. The game was tied at 7 at halftime before Michigan’s defense came up with huge plays to set up scores.
