Michigan Prepares For Oklahoma

Michigan Faces No. 11 Oklahoma Amid Mounting Performance Concerns After Narrow Win

Michigan's football team is facing more pressing issues than a clock controversy, including facing No. 11 Oklahoma. The Wolverines' 13-12 win over Western Michigan ended with a disputed second on the clock that allowed Bryce Underwood another chance to complete a Hail Mary. Despite this, Michigan's performance was poor in all three phases, including in coach Kyle Whittingham's debut with college football's winningest program. The team fell out of the AP Top 25 and is 6 1/2-point underdogs against the Sooners in a Big Ten-SEC matchup. Underwood, who was the nation's No. 1 recruit in his second season, struggled throughout the game and was seen expressionless and speaking to no one on the sideline.
