If it helps Mike Hart scored the first TD against Notre Dame that year.

I'm gonna go with a scramble that leads to him just waltzing up the middle of the field into the endzone!!!!!

to this too.

Norfleet as he will be the first to actualy touch the ball on the kickoff return. WTF is with the two negative nellies down voting this post?

3rd offensive play of the game:
3rd and 5 from the App St. 25 yard line...
Pass play....
Jake Ryan blitzes up the middle and sacks App St. QB, forcing a rolling/bouncing fumble that ends up hopping into...
Brennan Beyer on the fumble recovery, takes it to the house easily from the 25, ushering in the 2014 Michigan defense that is a force to be wreckoned with.
(A pick-six happens later in the game as well, taken to the house by Raymon Taylor, 74 yard return)

This D will be exciting, can't wait to see it in action on Saturday!

scores on a skinny post ala Manningham's game winner vs. Penn St. I think Manningham was a freshman as well.

We kick exclusively field goals on the golden legs (yes, both of them) of Matt Wile, whose sniper accuracy and 95-yard range proves all other offensive plays inefficient. Michigan averages 63 points a game in non-conference play, only to see that number drop 9 points to 54 during the B10 season. Michigan's only loss comes to Rutgers when a small October hurricane sits almost directly on top of High Point Solutions Stadium for four unfortunately-timed hours, causing Wile to miss the 59 yard game-winner. Final score: 49-48 Rutgers, led by Nova's 6 TD passes and one 84 yard scamper TD.
So to answer your question, no one. No one scores a touchdown. Wile wins Heisman though, so that's cool.
August 27th, 2014 at 2:38 PM ^
So we'll go 11-1 and win the B1G Championship, which means that we'll get into the CoFoPlayoff, and if we don't lose there...

I hope it's Norfleet. I love that kid. He's starting to rival D. Rob for most electrifying smile in college football.

Punt return
August 27th, 2014 at 12:58 PM ^
To not answer the question, I think Michigan's first points are a field goal by Wile. Get the ball first and stall in the red zone. Then maybe Funchess touchdown on the next drive to go up 10-0.

M defense on field first, forces punt. Peppers returns punt 67 yds for TD.
I recall Anthony Carter did this the first time he touched the ball in his first game as a freshman.

After what we discovered about the news strategy for developing longsnappers in the Sugar Bowl, I am shocked that no one said Scott Sypniewski. After all, in a pinch, the LS is good for some short receiving yards, right?
Realistically, however, like others I have a suspicion that the first TD will coincide with the first opportunity to shout, "ALL OF THE DEVINS!"
