Reacting to Michigan’s 30-27 win over Nebraska in Big Ten opener
No. 20 Michigan Wolverines defeated Nebraska to open their Big Ten schedule, Saturday, Sept. 20, 2025, in Lincoln, Nebraska. Here’s what it means.
Michigan football just got its first Big Ten win of 2025, right as it heads into its first bye week of the season.
The Wolverines (3-1, 1-0 Big Ten) squeaked out a 30-27 win over the Nebraska Cornhuskers (3-1, 0-1 Big Ten) in Lincoln, Nebraska on Saturday, Sept. 20. Michigan came out with a win despite some questionable decisions from its coaching staff and a less-than-impressive performance from star freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood.
However, the team can work on improving those details with the extra week off before its next game.
Following the bye week, Michigan comes back home for a Big Ten matchup against Wisconsin on Saturday, Oct. 4.
