Justice Haynes rushed for 149 yards and broke one of No. 21 Michigan's three long touchdown runs in a 30-27 win over Nebraska on Saturday, extending the Cornhuskers' losing streak against Top 25 opponents to 28 games. Freshman Bryce Underwood, who struggled in a road loss at Oklahoma two weeks ago, was just 12-of-22 passing for 105 yards in his first Big Ten road game but scored the Wolverines' first touchdown on a 37-yard run and extended his team's last scoring drive with a key third-down pass and a scramble. "He did everything he had to do to win, which is the maturity he might not have had at Oklahoma," said Biff Poggi, acting head coach in place of the suspended Sherrone Moore. Dylan Raiola's 52-yard Hail Mary to Jacory Barney Jr. for a touchdown to end the first half tied it 17-all and gave the Cornhuskers (3-1, 0-1 Big Ten) momentum heading into the third quarter.

They managed just a field goal after that until Raiola led them on a 75-yard drive to make it a three-point game with 1:34 left. Michigan (3-1, 1-0) recovered the onside kick, picked up a first down and ran out the clock. The Wolverines rushed for 286 yards, the most against Nebraska since Oklahoma ran for 312 in 2022. "Just too many big plays to win a football game like that," Nebraska coach Matt Rhule said. "We battled, and I appreciate that from the guys. It wasn't enough." The Wolverines went into the fourth quarter with a 27-17 lead after Dominic Zvada kicked a 56-yard field goal and Jordan Marshall busted through the line to go 54 yards for a touchdown. Zvada's 21-yard field goal gave the Wolverines a 10-point lead again with under 4 minutes to play. Michigan had two one-play touchdown drives, with Underwood breaking his 37-yard run after a Nebraska turnover and Haynes going 75 yards untouched to the end zone. Raiola was 30 of 41 for 308 yards and three touchdowns, the first quarterback to throw for 300 yards against Michigan since Purdue's Aidan O'Connell in 2022. Raiola threw his first interception of the season and was sacked seven times as Michigan defensive coordinator Wink Martindale sent blitzes from a variety of angles. - Michigan/AP College Football

09/17/25 - Giovanni El-Hadi, rSr/2026, Michigan, 6-5, 315 (DS#34 OG) + More +

Michigan will be without starting left guard Giovanni El-Hadi for several more weeks with an injury, but could see safety Rod Moore play his first game since the end of the 2023 season this coming Saturday at Nebraska. El-Hadi, a fifth-year player and second-year starter, injured his ankle in Michigan's Sept. 6 loss at Oklahoma. He sat out Saturday's win against Central Michigan and likely will miss the first few Big Ten games, acting head coach Bill Poggi said Monday. The offensive line could get a boost at Nebraska as starting right guard Brady Norton, who missed the Central Michigan game, will practice this week and could return in Lincoln.

Moore, a third-team All-Big Ten selection in 2023 who made the win-sealing interception against Ohio State, has not played since tearing his ACL and meniscus in spring practice of 2024. He had to undergo a second meniscus repair that delayed his return, but was cleared for the Central Michigan game and warmed up. Poggi said he expects Moore to play for the 21st-ranked Wolverines at Nebraska. Moore has 141 career tackles, with six interceptions and 13 passes defended. - ESPN College Football

Bryce Underwood passed for 235 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 114 yards and two more scores, leading No. 23 Michigan to a 63-3 victory over Central Michigan on Saturday. The Wolverines (2-1) and their freshman star bounced back from a lackluster performance in a loss at Oklahoma. Biff Poggi stepped in for suspended coach Sherrone Moore, who also will miss the school's Big Ten opener next weekend at Nebraska. Underwood completed 16 of 25 passes, including a 32-yard touchdown pass to Semaj Morgan, in three quarters before watching the rest of the game from the sideline. He carried the ball nine times, sometimes by design, and had the most yards rushing by a quarterback for the Wolverines since Devin Gardner ran for 121 yards on 24 attempts at Penn State in 2013 during a loss in four overtimes.

In a 24-13 loss to the Sooners last week, Underwood was 9 of 24 for 142 yards and lost a yard on three carries. The Chippewas (1-2) nearly picked off Underwood's first pass, then struggled to slow him down through the air or on the ground. Michigan's Justice Haynes had 104 yards rushing and a touchdown on 14 carries. Jordan Marshall scored twice while running for 52 yards on 10 attempts. The Wolverines scored at least two touchdowns in each quarter and had 616 yards of offense. The Chippewas, who were held to 139 yards on offense, avoided a shutout on Cade Graham's 22-yard field goal late in the first half. Central Michigan's Angel Flores was 7 of 12 for 24 yards and ran nine times for 76 yards. - Michigan/AP College Football

Michigan linebacker Jaishawn Barham will miss the first half of the Oklahoma game this week, following his ejection for targeting against New Mexico. Wolverines coach Sherrone Moore said Monday that the appeal to overturn the ruling was denied. Barham sacked Lobos quarterback Jack Layne, making facemask-to-facemask contact, and was called for targeting in the third quarter of the Wolverines’ season-opening, 34-17 win on Saturday night. Barham is in his second season as a starter for the Wolverines after transferring from Maryland, where he was a two-year starter. He ranked second on the team last year with 66 tackles. - AP College Football

08/30/25 - Justice Haynes, Jr/2027, Michigan, 5-10, 210 (DS#2 RB) + More +

Justice Haynes ran for 159 yards and three touchdowns and Bryce Underwood threw a touchdown pass, leading No. 14 Michigan to a season-opening 34-17 win over New Mexico on Saturday night. The Wolverines built an early cushion after Haynes scored on 56-and 5-yard touchdown runs in the first quarter. The transfer from Alabama had a 59-yard run that set up his 1-yard score to give Michigan a 17-point lead early in the fourth. Underwood, the fourth freshman to start at quarterback in program history, was 21 of 31 for 251 yards with a 17-yard touchdown pass to Marlin Kelin late in the first half to restore a two-touchdown lead.

The Lobos converted a fourth down and scored a touchdown on a trick play, sending a direct snap to running back D.J. McKinney to set up a 9-yard touchdown pass to Dorian Thomas. They recovered a fumble on the ensuing kickoff and kicked a field goal to move within 17-10 late in the first half. New Mexico pulled within 10 points late in the third quarter when Jack Layne lobbed a 3-yard pass to Thomas. The Lobos had a shot a shot to get closer early in the fourth, but Layne threw a pass up for grabs over the deep middle of the field and Brandyn Hillman intercepted it. Haynes scored his third touchdown on the ensuing drive, and then Layne threw another ill-advised pass that was picked off at the Michigan 3 to seal the defeat. Layne, an Idaho transfer, was 31 of 47 for 208 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions. - Michigan/AP College Football

Bryce Underwood was welcomed with a roar from the Michigan Stadium crowd and kept the fans buzzing on the opening possessions of his college career. Underwood, the fourth freshman to start at quarterback for college football's winningest program, completed a pass on his first snap to Semaj Morgan and converted a third down with another throw to the junior receiver. His sharp passes extended the game-opening drive that ended with Justice Haynes' 56-yard touchdown run for the 14th-ranked Wolverines against New Mexico on Saturday night.

Underwood used his 6-foot-4, 230-pound body to block a safety to help Haynes run for a 5-yard touchdown on the second drive against the Lobos. He was the nation's top-ranked recruit last year at nearby Belleville High School. Underwood flipped his commitment from LSU after arecruitment that included a FaceTime chat with former Michigan quarterback and seven-time Super Bowl winner Tom Brady and a connection with Oracle founder Larry Ellison, one of the world's richest people. - Michigan/AP College Football

Davis Warren and Alex Orji each threw a touchdown pass, Will Johnson returned an interception for a score and No. 9 Michigan started defense of its national championship with a 30-10 win over Fresno State on Saturday night. The Wolverines (1-0) were sluggish on offense for much of the night, breaking in new quarterbacks behind a revamped offensive line and Sherrone Moore, who made his coaching debut as Jim Harbaugh's full-time replacement. The Bulldogs (0-1) trailed by just four points deep into the second quarter and 16-10 midway through the fourth before Michigan pulled away.

Warren, who beat out Orji to start at quarterback, threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Colston Loveland to give Michigan a 23-10 lead with 5:43 left. Johnson picked off a pass on the ensuing possession and returned it 86 yards, making the score lopsided in a game that was close for much of the night. The game opened with Orji throwing a 3-yard touchdown pass to Donovan Warren, but the rest of the night didn't go very smoothly for Moore's team until late in the game. Davis, a former walk-on who overcame leukemia in high school, was 15 of 25 for 118 yards with a touchdown and an interception. - AP College Football

Jake Garcia threw four touchdown passes and East Carolina overcame six turnovers with the help of a stifling defense in a 42-3 win over Norfolk State on Saturday night in the Pirates' season opener. Garcia, a Missouri transfer, was 23-of-36 for 308 yards and added 39 yards on the ground but threw three interceptions. Two of his touchdowns went to Desirrio Riles with one each to Anthony Smith and Casey Kelly. Javious Bond added a rushing TD. The Pirates also lost three fumbles. The Pirates rolled to 506 yards on offense while holding the Spartans from the FCS to 114. The Spartans (0-2) converted only one of 18 third downs. East Carolina's Gavin Gibson had a 30-yard pick-6 that put the Pirates up 21-6 on their way to a 28-3 halftime lead. - AP College Football
