Michigan begins defense of national title with 30-10 win over Fresno State

Davis Warren and Alex Orji each threw a touchdown pass, Will Johnson returned an interception for a score and No. 9 Michigan started defense of its national championship with a 30-10 win over Fresno State.

Sherrone Moore pumped his fist and screamed in the end zone, firing up fans in the Big House before his first game as Jim Harbaugh's full-time replacement. The defending national champions were sluggish on offense for much of Moore's debut before making plays on both sides of the ball to turn a closely contested game into a lopsided win. Davis Warren and Alex Orji each threw a touchdown pass, Will Johnson returned an interception for a score and No.

Johnson picked off a pass on the ensuing possession and returned it 86 yards. The game opened with Orji throwing a 3-yard touchdown pass to Donovan Edwards, but the rest of the night didn't go very smoothly for Moore's team until late in the game.
