The Michigan Wolverines debuted the 2024 season in the Big House last Saturday evening, and they played their first game with in-helmet communication devices.

Helmet communication has always been a major debate between college and professional football, but in April, the NCAA approved widespread use of helmet communication, giving 134 college football teams the option to use it beginning this season.
