Michigan defense secures 17-10 win over No. 11 Oklahoma in Ann Arbor
Summary

Michigan defeated No. 11 Oklahoma 17-10 on Thursday in Ann Arbor behind a late defensive performance. The winning score arrived in the fourth quarter after Jyaire Hill intercepted a pass from John Mateer, setting up the offense at the Oklahoma 6-yard line. Jordan Marshall scored on a short run two plays later to provide the winning margin. Oklahoma failed to generate a scoring drive in its final two possessions, punting once and turning the ball over on downs.
