Saturday's edition of This Week in Michigan Football History is a special one. We hit a few worthy topics starting with the recognition of the new Lloyd Carr Michigan Stadium Tunnel, before noting the 90th anniversary of the Michigan Marching Band visiting Columbus and teaching Ohio State their beloved "Script Ohio." We also get into this day in 2005 that gave us what is evermore known simply as, 'TOUCHDOWN MANNINGHAM!' Dig it:

Braylonfest! (2004) | This Week in Michigan Football History
For this edition of TWIMFbH we head back to October 30, 2004 and a game forever known as 'Braylonfest.' The stunning comeback against our in-state rivals was one of the ages, and coincidentally occurred 17 years to the day of the 2021 match-up against Michigan State for The Paul Bunyan Trophy.

Tar Heel Heat (1965), Hello Mike Hart (2004) | This Week in Michigan Football History
For this week's episode, a quick look at a weird 1960s season opener in Chapel Hill, North Carolina where Bump Elliott's crew faced the Tar Heels. Guess what? Two things were super hot that day: Michigan's start to the game, and the weather! We conclude with a short trip back to 2004 when Lloyd Carr's team looked to bounce back from a setback in South Bend. San Diego State's DARK SIDE DEFENSE was the problem. The solution? A dose of Henne-to-Braylon, and a dash of freshman Mike Hart.
