It’s the first Michigan title in a generation.
Last Time Michigan Football Won a National Championship
Michigan football’s last national championship came during the 1997 season when the Wolverines beat No. 8 Washington State in the Rose Bowl 21-16.
The Rose Bowl win capped an undefeated 12-0 season that also included a Big Ten Championship and a 20-14 win over archrival Ohio State.
