Media reactions from Michigan football’s win over Nebraska
Michigan took the Cornhuskers right off the cob during Saturday’s 45-7 win.
Michigan advances to 5-0 and has a strong case to be considered the best team in all of college football with Georgia struggling. The Wolverines played a complete game and dominated Nebraska in all three phases of the game.
Harbaugh benched the starters with just over five minutes remaining in the third quarter in an effort to preserve them and gave younger players reps.
As per usual, Michigan sports the best fan base (and media coverage) of any college in the nation. Check out some of the best tweets from fans, media personalities, and more.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
That is an absolute freak show throw from JJ McCarthy.
Running full speed at his sideline and throws a freaking laser to the back of the end zone. That’s an NFL throw. There aren’t many dudes on this planet that do stuff like that.

Jim Harbaugh on his players: "I haven't found one loaf in terms of a lack of effort this entire season."

Nebraska hasn't got the horses but they're well-coached, as expected. Michigan's best game so far.— John U. Bacon (@Johnubacon) September 30, 2023

Time for Michigan to put Kenneth Grant back in the end zone to pick off this hail mary attempt.

What a stop. Shotgun is risky, but I actually don't hate it. Gives the big QB a full head of steam and a chance to pick a lane. #Michigan just too strong and too sound for it to work.

Man, what a catch by Roman. Unreal. The Flyin Hawaiian is back in the end zone after a one week hiatus!!

That's about as good a half as you can play. Michigan offense extremely efficient and balanced. J.J. McCarthy was great. Offensive line was for the most part, too, with a new starting combination.
Wolverines up 28-0 at the break. Lincoln crowd has been completely neutralized.
