In an impassioned battle for the Paul Bunyan Trophy, Michigan triumphed 24-17 over Michigan State under the lights at Michigan Stadium. The Spartans started strong with Nate Carter capping a methodical drive with a 2-yard rushing touchdown. Michigan, however, struggled early, accumulating just one yard in the first quarter. But the tide turned with a late first-half surge aided by a turnover, enabling Michigan to lead 9-7 at halftime.
Davis Warren's deft leadership spurred Michigan's offense in the second half. Highlighted by a trick play touchdown pass from Donovan Edwards to Colston Loveland, the Wolverines pulled ahead by two scores in the fourth quarter.
