OU football vs Michigan live updates: Start time, TV channel for Week 2 game

ANN ARBOR — Oklahoma travels to face Michigan at The Big House for the first time in its history.

The Sooners and Wolverines will kick at 11 a.m. CT Saturday on FOX.

It’s been a long week for Michigan.

The Wolverines needed a Hail Mary in order to defeat Western Michigan in Week 1. New coach Kyle Whittingham said quarterback Bryce Underwood’s job "is not something that's infinite."

It’s going to take a better Michigan offensive effort against a ferocious, Brent Venables-led OU defense.

The Sooners are expected to return starting center Jake Maikkula and sophomore offensive lineman Ryan Fodje.

Michigan football scouting report for Week 2 vs. Oklahoma

11:01 AM ET, September 12 2026, Colton Sulley

Record: 1-0

Best player: Utah transfer defensive end John Henry Daley recorded only three tackles against Western Michigan but he was an All-American under new Wolverines coach Kyle Whittingham with the Utes last season. In 2025 as a Chuck Bednarik Award semifinalist, he totaled 48 tackles, 17.5 for loss, two forced fumbles and one pass breakup.

The case for Michigan: The controversial ending was just what the Wolverines needed to get themselves in gear. Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood plays a lot better and Mateer makes mistakes.

The case for OU: If Michigan plays like it did Saturday, this game could get ugly in a hurry. Sooners coach Brent Venables threw everything under the sun at Underwood last season and you have to imagine it'll be a struggle for the young quarterback again. OU also brings more versatility into the matchup with its new-look offense and what seems to be an improved run game.
