Michigan football upsets Oklahoma in huge bounce-back from everyone
Bryce Underwood did not commit a turnover and scored a 38-yard TD as No. 24 Michigan moved to 2-0 with upset of No. 10 Oklahoma and John Mateer.
Michigan football made a stunning comeback in a 17-10 victory over Oklahoma at Michigan Stadium on Saturday. Bryce Underwood opened the scoring with a 38-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, setting the tone for the Wolverines. Later in the game, Jyaire Hill intercepted a pass by Oklahoma deep in their territory, leading to a 1-yard touchdown from Jordan Marshall with just 7:53 remaining in the fourth quarter.
Underwood had a strong performance, rushing for 87 yards on 18 carries and completing 9 of 17 passes for 111 yards without any turnovers. JJ Buchanan, whose over-the-top Hail Mary pass helped Michigan last week, contributed 48 yards on two catches. Andrew Marsh struggled with only 13 yards on three receptions. Despite a strong effort, the Sooners (No. 10) fought back from a 10-0 halftime deficit, combining for 20 penalties between them.
Michigan secured the win when Nate Marshall stripped John Mateer of the ball in the final seconds. Mateer, a former Michigan star, struggled in his return to Ann Arbor, completing only 17 of 33 passes for 189 yards and a touchdown. Rocky Beers was the top receiver for the Sooners with six catches for 94 yards. Michigan will face UTEP next Saturday, while Oklahoma recently defeated Texas Southern 51-0.
