When did Michigan get their 2nd win against us?

I know of one in the 80s.

We beat them at their place in '80 and have beaten them twice in bowls.

I'm scratching my head trying to remember their other win?

ETA:

Ya'll are 3-1 against UM. No idea why OP has 2.

I dunno.

Likely that I am 45 years old and my memory lacks some times. I thought they beat us the first and 3rd time we played them. I thought we beat them the 2nd game with Big George and company at the Big House. Attended USC 91-94. I am not a graduate but I have been a fan my whole life. I was born and still live in Columbia.

That doesn’t even begin to touch the horrible losses that we have endured.

I was in school then ... will never forget that.

App State had a helluva team that year and we pulled a boner. We went on to mudhole Clemson 56-20 and that sent them into a cheating fit that would land them in NCAA sanction land five years later.

We had lost seven starters at LSU a couple of weeks earlier after starting 5-1 with our only loss being a close game against Georgia. We had already beaten Ga Tech, Virginia and Baylor. The next week after LSU we lost two more starters vs Lou Holtz at NC State then limped home and lost to App State ... unexcusable but App State won the SoCon and almost won their national championship that year.

We rebounded by beating Wake then we mudholed Clemson. Jeff Grantz just annihilated the taters.

It was a strange year. Jim Carlen's first year, rebuilding after Coach Deitzel had stepped aside to become the AD at Indiana.
