As you might have seen in the news on Thursday, Texas and OU are heading to the SEC a year earlier than expected, now on 7/1/2024. The issue was working out the money and making a schedule change.
I had totally forgotten about an agreement struck in 2014 that Michigan and Texas were going to do a home and home. Michigan was to travel to Austin in 2024 and then Texas to Ann Arbor in 2027. There are some TV rights on the line here and now those games have been flipped. Texas will be coming to Ann Arbor in 2024 and Michigan to Austin in 2027. Which could be the start of the Arch Manning era in Texas, as he is expected to sit behind Ewers this season.
I hope Jayden Davis is aware of this game and potential match-up with Manning. Regular non-conference games don't get bigger than this.
If you've ever wondered about the power or reach of Michigan Football. This is a great example of one game being a key factor in two teams moving conferences outside the Big Ten.
- Hutch lost the NFL Defensive Rookie of the year award to Sauce Gartner, which was expected. He did win the Pepsi Rookie of the year award, which is voted on by the fans. It's clear who the people's champion is!
- Good Luck to all the Wolverines playing in the Super Bowl on Sunday!
