It certainly wasn’t a perfect debut, as Underwood struggled with consistency, but he showed plenty of flashes that proved why he was the top rated recruit in the 2025 class.
Even though he will continue to go through growing pains as a freshman, Underwood has elite athleticism and arm talent that make him a shoo-in to win the starting job.

In front of more than 40,000 fans at Michigan Stadium, Underwood finished 13-for-26 for 187 passing yards, one touchdown and one interception.
Michigan fans should be relatively happy with how Underwood played, but he will need to improve as he committed two delay of games and missed a wide-open touchdown.
