After some consideration of opening the season in Germany, the Wolverines will host their home opener against Western Michigan in Ann Arbor. This would have been quite the experience not only for the players, but for some alumni of each respective university that may live in the thought about venue.
The 2026 opener against Western Michigan will be played at Michigan Stadium on Sept. 5.
We explored playing an international game in Frankfurt, Germany, on Aug. 29, but decided to keep the game in Ann Arbor.
