COLLEGE PARK, Maryland — At least a dozen Michigan players had already made their way into the locker room when staff members ushered them back onto the field.
This was a moment in history. It was time to celebrate.
After surviving a scare from Maryland — a 31-24 final score — college football’s all-time wins leader hit a memorable mark: 1,000 victories.
Players returned to the field, gathered together and posed for a group photograph. Coaches, other staff members and even visiting fans — rushing onto the turf against orders — joined in for this historic moment.
