Michigan upsets No. 11 Oklahoma 17-10

Overview

Oklahoma and Michigan met at Michigan Stadium on September 12, 2026, in a matchup that followed Michigan’s controversial 13-12 win over Western Michigan. Entering the game, Oklahoma was a road favorite, with the SP+ model projecting a 27-20 victory for the Sooners.

During the first half, Michigan established a 10-0 lead, highlighted by a 38-yard touchdown run from sophomore quarterback Bryce Underwood. Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer struggled early, completing only 7 of 16 passes for 52 yards, while linebacker Kip Lewis was forced to leave the game in the first quarter due to a knee injury. Betting interest was notably high, with Oklahoma being the most popular spread bet of the weekend.

Michigan ultimately secured a 17-10 upset victory, driven by a defensive performance that held Oklahoma to 289 total yards and forced two turnovers, including a second-quarter fumble recovered by linebacker Troy Bowles and an interception by Jyaire Hill. Underwood contributed 87 rushing yards on 18 carries and a touchdown, while completing 9-of-17 passes for 111 yards. Defenders John Henry Daley and Dom Nichols also applied significant pressure on Mateer throughout the contest.

Michigan head coach Kyle Whittingham noted that the heavy rushing approach was part of the game plan but emphasized the necessity of improving the passing game in the future. Whittingham also addressed recent speculation regarding Underwood’s job security, stating that the quarterback remains the team's starter.
