Michigan Throttles Washington 24–7 Behind Takeaway-Driven Defense

Sherrone Moore credits private 'tough conversations' for a course correction that keeps the Wolverines on track entering a rivalry trip to Michigan State.

Overview

  • Michigan intercepted Demond Williams Jr. three times and produced four consecutive second‑half stops to close with a 17‑0 run.
  • Bryce Underwood went 21‑of‑27 for a career‑best 230 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in an efficient performance.
  • Jordan Marshall carried 25 times for 133 yards and scored the go‑ahead touchdown late in the third quarter.
  • The Wolverines stifled the Huskies’ rushing attack, holding Jonah Coleman to 50 yards as Washington averaged just 1.7 yards per carry.
  • Moore emphasized accountability after the USC loss, with players calling DC Don "Wink" Martindale’s message a gut or reality check, and Michigan now visits Michigan State on Oct. 25 in East Lansing.
