The University of Michigan Wolverines made history on Saturday, October 6th, 2018, when they notched their 1000th program victory with a narrow 31-24 win over the Maryland Terrapins. It was a hard-fought game that saw the Wolverines come from behind in the fourth quarter to secure the win.
The game was a back-and-forth affair, with the Wolverines taking an early lead in the first quarter. Maryland responded in the second quarter with two touchdowns to take a 14-10 lead into halftime. The Terrapins extended their lead to 17-10 in the third quarter, but the Wolverines responded with two touchdowns of their own to take a 24-17 lead into the fourth quarter.
The fourth quarter was a nail-biter, with both teams trading field goals to make it 27-24 in favor of Michigan. The Wolverines then sealed the win with a late touchdown to make it 31-24.
The win was a historic one for the Wolverines, as it marked their 1000th program victory. It was also the first time in school history that Michigan had won 1000 games. The win was especially sweet for head coach Jim Harbaugh, who is in his fourth season at Michigan and has been working hard to restore the program to its former glory.
The win over Maryland was a great way for the Wolverines to start off their 2018 season, and they will look to continue their success as they face off against Big Ten rivals like Penn State and Ohio State in the coming weeks.
Michigan’s 1000th program victory is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the players, coaches, and staff that have been part of the program over the years. It’s a great milestone for the Wolverines, and one that will be remembered for many years to come.
