Michigan and Penn State are two storied programs, but they didn’t play each other until 1993, when the Nittany Lions joined the Big Ten. Immediately, Michigan ripped off a couple of the biggest plays in series history, with a 48-yard punt return touchdown by Derrick Alexander and a 47-yard touchdown run by Tyrone Wheatley. Wheatley had Michigan’s longest play in series history in the second meeting.
- Tyrone Wheatley 67-yard TD run (1994)
- Brandon Watson 62-yard interception return TD (2018)
- Denard Robinson 60-yard TD pass to Kevin Koger (2010)
- Devin Gardner 59-yard TD pass to Devin Funchess (2013)
- Hassan Haskins 59-yard run (2020)
- Jourdan Lewis 55-yard kickoff return (2015)
- Walter Cross 53-yard kickoff return (1999)
- John Navarre 53-yard TD pass to Ronald Bellamy (2001)
- Jabrill Peppers 53-yard punt return (2016)
- Karan Higdon 50-yard run (2018)
