Michigan's Point Total in Big Ten Championship Win Honors Oxford High School Victim

Michigan routed Iowa on Saturday in the Big Ten championship game, 42–3, to likely cement their status in the College Football Playoff. And as they did, the team wore a jersey patch honoring the recent victims of the recent Oxford High School shooting.

Among them was Oxford football player Tate Myre, who was a junior running back/linebacker and wore No. 42.

“We wanted to play for 42 and all those that tragically lost their lives in that community and everything," Michigan center Andrew Vastardis said, per the Detroit News.
