On October 5, 1935, Michigan opened its 1935 season with its [[Michigan–Michigan State football rivalry|annual rivalry game]] against the [[1935 Michigan State Spartans football team|Michigan State Spartans]]. The Spartans had defeated the Wolverines in 1934 for the first time since 1915. Led by head coach [[Charlie Bachman]] and left halfback Kurt Warmbein, the Spartans again defeated the Wolverienes, 25 to 6. It was the first time the Spartans had defeated the Wolverines in consecutive games. Michigan's only touchdown was scored in the first quarter. Lining up for a placekick, [[William Renner|Bill Renner]] threw a short touchdown pass to Cedric Sweet. Chris Everhardus missed the kick for extra point. Despite the one-sided score, [[Tod Rockwell]] opined in the ''[[Detroit Free Press]]'' that the 1935 Wolverines appeared to be a much better team than the 1934 Wolverines that had compiled a 1–7 record.<ref>{{cite news|title=State Scores in Every Period to Beat Michigan, 25 to 6: Spartan Line Leads Charge to 4 Markers|newspaper=Detroit Free Press|author=Tod Rockwell|date=October 6, 1935|pages=Sports 1, 6|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/8146450/state_scores_in_every_period_to_beat/}}</ref>

Rankings from United Press

The 1935 Michigan Wolverines football team represented the University of Michigan in the 1935 college football season. In their seventh season under head coach Harry Kipke, the Wolverines compiled a 4–4 record (2–3 against Big Ten Conference opponents, finished in a tie for seventh place in the Big Ten), and were outscored by opponents by a combined total of 131 to 68. The team had a 4–1 record after five games, but was shut out in its final three games. Michigan's 40–0 loss to 1935 consensus national champion Minnesota in the annual Little Brown Jug game was the worst defeat suffered by a Michigan Wolverines football team since 1892.

All eight opponents faced by the Wolverines during the 1935 season were led by head coaches who were later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. Quarterback William Renner was the team captain and also received the team's most valuable player award. End Matt Patanelli was the only Michigan player selected as a first-team player on the 1935 All-Big Ten Conference football team. Halfback Chris Everhardus was the team's leading scorer with 13 points.

Michigan State

[edit]
Week 1: Michigan State at Michigan
1 234Total
• Michigan State 7 666 25
Michigan 6 000 6

On October 5, 1935, Michigan opened its 1935 season with its annual rivalry game against the Michigan State Spartans. The Spartans had defeated the Wolverines in 1934 for the first time since 1915. Led by head coach Charlie Bachman and left halfback Kurt Warmbein, the Spartans again defeated the Wolverines, 25 to 6. It was the first time the Spartans had defeated the Wolverines in consecutive games. Michigan's only touchdown was scored in the first quarter. Lining up for a placekick, William Renner threw a short touchdown pass to Cedric Sweet. Chris Everhardus missed the kick for extra point. Despite the one-sided score, Tod Rockwell opined in the Detroit Free Press that the 1935 Wolverines appeared to be a much better team than the 1934 Wolverines that had compiled a 1–7 record.[1]

Indiana

Week 2: Indiana at Michigan
1 234Total
Indiana 0 000 0
• Michigan 0 700 7

On October 12, 1935, Michigan defeated Bo McMillin's Indiana Hoosiers, 7 to 0, at Michigan Stadium. The victory was Michigan's first over a Big Ten Conference opponents since the 1933 season. Indiana out-gained Michigan, 296 to 113, but the Wolverines held the Hoosiers scoreless. The only touchdown of the game was scored in the second quarter when Indiana fumbled a punt and Michigan end Matt Patanelli fell on the loose ball in the Indiana end zone. Johnny Viergever kicked the extra point.[2]

At Wisconsin

Week 3: Michigan at Wisconsin
1 234Total

On October 19, 1935, Michigan defeated Clarence Spears' Wisconsin Badgers, 20 to 12, at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin. Quarterback William Renner threw three touchdown passes (two in the first quarter, one in the second) to lead Michigan to a 20 to 0 lead at halftime. Renner threw touchdown passes covering 10 yards to Johnny Smithers, 13 yards to Mike Savage, and 25 yards to Chris Everhardus. Johnny Viergever and Chris Everhardus each kicked one extra point. An injury to Renner's hand late in the second quarter slowed the Wolverines in the second half, and Wisconsin scored twice in the second half to narrow the gap.[3]

At Columbia

[edit]
Week 4: Michigan at Columbia
1 234Total
• Michigan 12 070 19
Columbia Lions 0 070 7

On October 26, 1935, Michigan played Lou Little's Columbia Lions at Baker Field in New York. Little's teams had lost only one game in each of the 1933 and 1934 seasons and had defeated Stanford in the 1934 Rose Bowl. Michigan defeated the Lions, 19 to 7. On the opening kickoff, Columbia fumbled a backward pass, and Matt Patanelli recovered the ball for Michigan at Columbia's 17-yard line. Johnny Smithers scored three plays later on a short run. Chris Everhardus returned a punt 42 yards for Michigan's second touchdown, giving Michigan a 13 to 0 lead in the first quarter. Michigan and Columbia each scored touchdowns in the third quarter. Michigan's final tally came on a five-yard touchdown pass from Bill Renner to Ernest Johnson, and Steve Remias kicked the extra point. Al Barabas, star of the 1934 Rose Bowl, ran 74 yards for Columbia's only touchdown.[4]

Penn had won its prior two games by a combined score of 101 to 0, and Michigan's victory was considered "an outstanding upset."[5] Michigan led 13 to 0 at halftime. William Renner threw a three-yard touchdown pass to Arthur Valpey in the first quarter, and Cedric Sweet ran 18 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter. Steve Remnias kicked an extra point.

The Wolverines gained only 10 yards of total offense and secured only one first down, that one coming on an Illinois penalty for running into the punter in the third quarter.
