Did Michigan, Bryce Underwood revive ranking, playoff hopes by beating No. 11 Oklahoma?
The Wolverines rebounded well from their controversial victory over Western Michigan.
Michigan's Bryce Underwood delivered a stellar performance, leading the Wolverines to a 17-10 victory over No. 11 Oklahoma in an intense home game at Michigan Stadium. Sophomore quarterback Underwood rushed for 87 yards on 18 carries, including a 38-yard touchdown run, and completed 9 of 17 passes for 111 yards, showcasing a marked improvement in his pocket presence.
Defensively, the unranked Wolverines were "lights out" throughout the game, as defensive back Jyaire Hill returned an interception to the Oklahoma 6-yard line with just 7:53 minutes left on the clock, setting up Jordan Marshall's game-winning 1-yard touchdown run. Michigan finished the game without turnovers, while Oklahoma lost senior linebacker Kip Lewis to a knee injury early in the contest.
The win could have Michigan back in the AP Top 25, but the team still faces a challenging schedule with Indiana, Penn State, Oregon, and Ohio State on the horizon.
