NORMAN, Okla. — Michigan and Oklahoma face off in the marquee game of the week Saturday night in Norman. It’s been nearly 50 years since the Sooners and Wolverines last met on the football field when Hall of Famers Barry Switzer and Bo Schembechler were leading the programs at the time. Today, it’s a reunion for Michigan coach Sherrone Moore, who played for the Sooners previously when OU head coach Brent Venables was an assistant coach on the staff.
On the field, two of the more exciting quarterbacks in the country meet. Michigan freshman phenom Bryce Underwood debuted nicely last week with 251 yards and a touchdown, the highest yardage total by a freshman in Michigan history. Oklahoma’s John Mateer picked up where he left off at Washington State last season, breaking a record with 389 passing yards, the most by a QB in his Sooners debut.
Both teams have dreams of reaching the College Football Playoff and winning their respective conferences. Kickoff from Norman is set for 7:30 p.m. ET.
