After early season losses to #9 Missouri and unranked Michigan State , the Wolverines won four straight games before their showdown with heavily-favored and top-ranked Ohio State for the Big Ten championship. Michigan shocked the college football world by upsetting the top-ranked Buckeyes 24–12 to tie for the conference title and receive the Rose Bowl bid.[5] [6] [7] [8]
Just days before the Rose Bowl, first-year head coach Bo Schembechler , age forty, suffered a mild heart attack and had to miss the game;[9] [10] [3]
USC

Aided by a pass interference penalty on fourth down followed by a controversial last-minute touchdown, USC earned the Rose Bowl berth with a 14–12 win over rival UCLA in their regular season finale.[11] 14–14 tie at Notre Dame in mid-October.[12]
Game summary

The score was tied at 3–3 at halftime. With three minutes to play in the third quarter, USC quarterback Jimmy Jones threw a 33-yard touchdown pass to Bob Chandler to give the Trojans a 10–3 lead. A scoreless fourth quarter ensured the USC victory.[2] [3] [4]
