What is Michigan's best win in last decade (08-17')?

I guess I don't see why this is getting negged. Is it wrong? Yeah there have been some fun games and great memories but really, where is even just one signature win, preferably against a rival, that leads to, or caps off, a "special" season?* It's been a long time, folks, I don't see the harm in acknowledging it.
*Before you say UTL I leading to the Sugar Bowl season, that team lost handily to MSU, shit the bed at Iowa, reversed the OSU misery only against their worst offering in years, and were lucky to win their bowl. If that's our bar, yikes.

Yeah, it's pretty depressing. Well over 100 games and no clear "signature" win(s). One win over OSU when they were trash.
What is the highest ranked team Michigan has beaten in the last 10 years?

Here's an oddball. 2015 Michigan - (13) Northwestern.
Harbaugh's first year. We just beat up on (22) BYU and some scrubs, but I had no idea if Michigan was back to being a decent team (after a no bowl shit-show season & my senior year of undergrad) . Also didn't know if Rudock was for real either. BYU could have been overrated.
We come out HOT....return Chesson returns the opening kickoff for a TD and the big house explodes onto a 38-0 victory.
Runner up: beating the shit out of Florida in 2015.

were bad, but the 4th quarter was magnificent and the fans refused to leave after the game was over, staying to cheer and sing.

Rutgers last year. What I like about it is how it goes from "This is a big game for Rutgers..300 recruits are invited" and a fairly balanced opening quarter to just complete annihilation. There's something magical to knowing the opponent can't do *anything*. Like even your normal cupcake will have that one good rehearsed drive or even two..but those dudes just got destroyed. We salted the damn earth. I have that game recorded and sometimes to fall asleep to peacefully, thinking happy thoughts.
