It will be the second game between the two teams; the first took place Sept. 19, 2015, during Jim Harbaugh's first season as head coach, and resulted in a 28-7 Michigan win in Ann Arbor.
Michigan's other non-conference games in 2023 include home matchups against East Carolina (Sept. 2) and Bowling Green (Sept. 16), which were previously announced in 2019.
