Fifth-ranked Michigan delivered a historic upset over second-ranked UConn in women's college basketball on Friday, November 6, 2026. The Wolverines' victory over the perennial powerhouse Huskies marks one of the most significant upsets in recent NCAA women's basketball history.

The game, reported by Angelique S. Chengelis of The Detroit News, saw Michigan overcome the highly favored UConn program that has dominated women's college basketball for decades. Details on the final score, key players, and game-defining moments were not immediately available in the initial report.

UConn, under longtime coach Geno Auriemma, has won 11 national championships and is widely considered the sport's premier program. Michigan's victory signals a potential shift in the national landscape and establishes the Wolverines as legitimate title contenders this season.
