Overview
- Veteran safety Rod Moore, back from a 2024 knee injury and a gradual reintroduction to snaps, nabbed a pivotal third‑quarter interception in his first home game since 2023.
- Justice Haynes rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns, becoming the first Michigan player since 2010 to top 100 rushing yards in each of the first five games.
- Michigan's defense held Wisconsin to 2.7 yards per carry and steered the Badgers into short passing, blunting their bid to push the ball downfield.
- Quarterback Bryce Underwood went 19-of-28 for 270 yards and a touchdown, with Donaven McCulley contributing six catches for 112 yards and a score to spark the passing game.
- The game marked Sherrone Moore's sideline return after a two-game NCAA-related suspension, and Michigan logged a 27th straight win over an unranked opponent before a trip to USC next week.
