The 2024 Michigan Wolverines football team was an American football team that represented the University of Michigan in the Big Ten Conference during the 2024 NCAA Division I FBS football season. In the Wolverines' first year under head coach Sherrone Moore, they compiled an 8–5 record (5–4 in conference games), outscored opponents by a total of 286 to 259, and finished in a tie for seventh place in the Big Ten standings.

After starting the season 4–1, with a loss to No. 3 Texas, Michigan fell to 5–5, despite a rivalry win against Michigan State. Michigan won its final two regular season games, including a 13–10 upset victory against rival No. 2 Ohio State at Ohio Stadium, despite entering the game as 20.5 point underdogs. It marked the fourth consecutive win against the Buckeyes, the longest streak for the Wolverines since 1988 to 1991, and the largest upset in the series history.[1]

The Wolverines concluded their season with a 19–13 upset victory over No. 11 Alabama in the ReliaQuest Bowl. Michigan became the only program in college football history to beat Alabama twice in the same calendar year, and the first team since 1978 to win back-to-back games as double digit underdogs.[2][3]

The team's statistical leaders included quarterback Davis Warren with 1,199 passing yards, running back Kalel Mullings with 948 rushing yards, tight end Colston Loveland with 56 receptions for 582 yards, placekicker Dominic Zvada with 89 points scored (21 field goals, 26 extra points), defensive end Josaiah Stewart with 8.5 sacks and 13 tackles for a loss, and linebacker Ernest Hausmann with 89 total tackles.[4] Defensive tackle Mason Graham was an unanimous first-team selection on the 2024 All-America college football team. Zvada was selected as a first-team All-American and was also honored as the Big Ten Kicker of the Year.

On October 19, following its first bye week, Michigan lost to Illinois, 21–7, at Memorial Stadium in Champaign, Illinois. Illinois wore 1924 throwback uniforms to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Red Grange's six-touchdown game against Michigan on the day Memorial Stadium was dedicated.[37]

On the opening drive of the game, Illinois drove 46 yards on seven plays, including a 29-yard run by Aidan Laughery, and took the lead on a 47-yard field goal by David Olano. Michigan punted on its first two possessions. On its third possession, quarterback Jack Tuttle fumbled at Michigan's 25-yard line, setting up a 32-yard field goal by Olano. On Michigan's next possession, Donovan Edwards fumbled and Illinois recovered the ball at midfield. The Illini then drove 51 yards on seven plays, scoring on a two-yard touchdown pass from Luke Altmyer to Tanner Arkin. Trailing, 13-0, Michigan then drove 72 yards on 12 plays, including eight runs by Kalel Mullings, ending with a one-yard touchdown run by Mullings. Illinois drove 49 yards in the closing two minutes of the first half, but Olano's field-goal attempt from 44 yards was blocked by Makari Paige. Illinois led 13–7 at halftime.[38][39]

On the opening drive of the second half, Michigan was held to a three-and-out. Illinois then drove 55 yards in eight plays, including a 36-yard run by Tanner Arkin on a fake punt, and ending with a one-yard touchdown run by Altmyer and a two-point conversion pass from Donovan Leary to Zakhari Franklin. Michigan's next two drives combined for 14:13 of game time, however, they failed to score any points due to a blocked 28-yard field goal try by Dominic Zvada and an interception thrown by Tuttle at the Illinois two-yard line. Michigan's offense was held scoreless by the Fighting Illini for the final 31:40 of the game. This was Illinois' first victory against Michigan since 2009.[38][39][40]

Michigan scored only seven points against an Illinois defense that gave up 49 points to Purdue one week earlier. It was Michigan's lowest point total since a 31-0 loss to Notre Dame in September 2014.[41] Quarterback Jack Tuttle made his first start of the season for Michigan and completed 20 of 32 passes for 208 yards (129 in the fourth quarter) with one interception and a fumble. Tuttle was also sacked five times.[42] After the game, CBS broadcaster Brian Jones described Michigan's offense as "pathetic" and "embarrassing" and noted that Tuttle "couldn't hit the side of a building."[43]
