1+ hour, 41+ min ago (220+ words) Michigan Wolverines coach Sherrone Moore held massive regret following his team's 27-9 disaster in Week 14 against the Ohio State Buckeyes in Ann Arbor this past Saturday. Whether it was blown coverage, a missed assignment, penalty miscues or otherwise, the Wolverines simply had no answers for the unbeaten, No. 1-ranked Buckeyes. Moore said he quickly realized the game was slipping away, yet admitted when speaking to reporters following the defeat that he was simply thin on answers for why. Although the loss was 100 percent collective as a team, Moore said the game ultimately came down to coaching. Therefore, Moore said he has to own his role about where the game went sideways. "We'll look at the film and see exactly what it is," Moore sais. "But you don't want this feeling again, 364 days a year. Working to figure out ways to win…...

Sophomore running back Makhi Frazier, who led the Spartans in rushing this season, announced via social media he intends to enter the transfer portal. He has two seasons of eligibility remaining. The NCAA altered the portal timeline this year by eliminating a spring window and condensing it to a two-week span from Jan. 2-16. There's also a 15-day window open to players on teams with a head coaching change and that begins five days after a new coach is announced or hired. Multiple reports on Sunday indicate Michigan State is planning on hiring former Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald to replace Smith. Frazier, a former three-star recruit from Texas, was committed to play for Smith at Oregon State before following him to East Lansing as part…...

15+ hour, 51+ min ago (237+ words) A former NFL referee has admitted that a mistake was made in the Ohio State at Michigan game on Saturday. Ohio State topped Michigan, 27-9, at The Big House in Ann Arbor. The Buckeyes ended Michigan's four game winning streak in the rivalry. Ohio State finished the regular season at 12-0, heading into the Big Ten Championship Game. The Buckeyes will be taking on Indiana next weekend. But during Saturday's game at The Big House, the referees appeared to make a big mistake, failing to act on an ejection-worthy play. Michigan linebacker Jaishawn Barham made contact with a referee in the first half. He hit his helmet into the referee's face, while complaining about a no-call. However, he was not ejected. Instead, he drew a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. The Maryland transfer was allowed to remain in the game. But should that…...

Doulas are trained professionals who provide non-clinical support to families before, during and after childbirth, and promote safe, healthy and positive birth experiences. As of this fall, more than 1,000 doulas had joined the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) Doula Registry. That doubled the five-year goal set in 2023.

21+ hour, 21+ min ago (610+ words) ANN ARBOR, Mich. " This time 12 months ago, the planning for 2025 had already begun. Yes, Michigan was coming off an improbable victory over arch rival Ohio State, but the 7-5 regular season left a sour taste in the mouth of a lot of folks. Head coach Sherrone Moore quickly jettisoned his offensive coordinator, and work was being done behind the scenes to land five-star quarterback Bryce Underwood. Fast forward one year, and while the Wolverines showed a two-game improvement, finishing the regular season with a 9-3 mark, it came with a disappointing finish. Needing a victory over the Buckeyes to slide into the College Football Playoff, Michigan posted a dud, a 27-9 loss that has Moore and his staff going back to the drawing board. But before anyone can wipe the 2025 season slate clean, attention now turns to the bowl game " with Michigan likely…...
