Michigan Bounces Back and Beats No. 11 Oklahoma 17-10 After an INT Late in Game Sets up Go-Ahead TD
On Saturday, September 12, 2026, Michigan defeated Oklahoma after defensive back Jyaire Hill intercepted a pass and returned it 24 yards, setting up Jordan Marshall's go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter.
Quarterback Bryce Underwood led the Wolverines' offensive rebound after facing criticism following last week's narrow victory against Western Michigan, rushing for 87 yards and a 38-yard touchdown while throwing for 111 yards.
Defensive end John Henry Daley delivered a crucial third-down sack, while punter Cam Brown's 39-yard punt—downed by Zeke Berry inside the 1-yard line—created field position advantages for Michigan throughout the game.
Despite throwing for 189 yards, Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer failed to convert on critical late-game drives, while Michigan coach Kyle Whittingham said the team showed "Great effort, team effort" but must reduce penalties.
The Wolverines host UTEP next Saturday while the Sooners prepare to face New Mexico, as both teams look to build momentum in the coming weeks.
