The competitive relationship between the UConn Huskies and Michigan Wolverines saw significant shifts in November 2026. Initially, Michigan defeated UConn 77-66 at Crisler Center, ending the Huskies' 39-game winning streak. This loss was UConn's first regular-season defeat since February 2025. During the game, Michigan struggled from beyond the arc, shooting 7-of-28 from three-point range, while UConn relied on strong perimeter shooting. Following the loss, UConn head coach Geno Auriemma praised Michigan coach Kim Barnes Arico for building the Wolverines into a national contender, though some UConn supporters expressed frustration on social media regarding the defeat and Auriemma's coaching style. Shortly after, the teams met in a rematch of last season’s NCAA championship game at TD Garden in Boston. In this contest, UConn defeated Michigan 85-77. Braylon Mullins led the Huskies with 23 points, while Michigan was led by Trey McKenney with 22 points. The victory for UConn marked the first loss for Michigan head coach Mike Boynton Jr.
