Michigan captured the attention of the entire college football world by flipping Bryce Underwood, the No. 1 player in the entire 2025 class, from LSU. Underwood made his debut in Michigan Stadium on Saturday as a commit to the program, so it’s not surprising that the energy being felt in Ann Arbor translated to the football field.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – The Michigan Wolverines are bowl-eligible after blowing out the Northwestern Wildcats 50-6 on Senior Day. Northwestern opened the battle for the George Jewett Trophy by getting former Wolverines wide receiver A.J. Henning involved with a five-yard catch, but an Aamir Hall interception stalled it.

The Wildcats likely knocked themselves out of contention for a bowl by losing for the fourth time in five games.
