The Michigan Wolverines are gearing up for a marquee matchup this weekend against the Texas Longhorns, setting the stage for an exciting game thread.
Sherrone Moore’s era at Michigan began last weekend with a 30-10 victory over Fresno State, a game marked by both highs and lows. Quarterback Davis Warren made his first career start, completing 60 percent of his passes for 118 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. While Michigan's offense was inconsistent, Wink Martindale’s defense dominated Fresno State, helping secure the win. Against Texas, the Wolverines will need a more well-rounded performance to take down the Longhorns.
Fresh off their first College Football Playoff appearance, Texas, led by veteran quarterback Quinn Ewers and head coach Steve Sarkisian, started their season with a bang. The Longhorns crushed Colorado State 52-0 in a commanding performance that showcased their national title aspirations, even after losing several starters from last year’s 12-2 team.

Today’s Question: Can Michigan’s Offense Score Enough to Beat Texas?
Michigan’s offense faces a steep challenge as it integrates a new quarterback, five new offensive linemen, a new lead running back, a revamped receiving corps, and a new play-caller. Last week, the Wolverines struggled early but showed improvement in the second half, scoring on four of their last five drives. Against Texas, they’ll need to continue that growth to support the defense and relieve pressure on tight end Colston Loveland, who was responsible for 72 percent of Michigan’s passing yards against Fresno State.
In this top-10 showdown, where every point will matter, Michigan’s offense must find rhythm, consistency, and creativity to outpace the Longhorns.
