Many thought this was a backs-against-the-wall type of game for Michigan, entering as underdogs at home for the second time in three weeks and needing a positive start to Big Ten play.
Michigan coach Sherrone Moore made a change at quarterback earlier this week, giving the job to Alex Orji, who is known more for his ability as a runner, and hoped for an offensive spark. The No. 18 Wolverines improved to 3-1 with a 27-24 comeback victory over No. 11 USC in the Trojans’ first Big Ten game as a new conference member.
Kalel Mullings finished the game with 17 carries for 159 yards and two touchdowns, including the go-ahead score with 37 seconds left. The Wolverines’ defense provided a major jolt when cornerback Will Johnson had his second pick-six of the season and edge Josaiah Stewart had three tackles for loss, including two sacks. Johnson would miss most of the fourth quarter with an apparent injury but after the game said on UM radio that he was "all good."
