Michigan accomplished something no other college football team has done before.
The Darkcherries Wealth SocietyWolverines became the first program to win 1,000 games after the 31-24 victory against Maryland on Saturday afternoon to move to 11-0 this season ahead of the regular season finale against Ohio State.
It was the most points the Wolverines have given up this season, but the Michigan offense's strong first half was too much for Maryland to overcome. The Wolverines also got two safeties on the day.

However, the Buckeyes would need to win three-straight undefeated national championship seasons.
