Michigan’s targeting call appeal is denied, linebacker Jaishawn Barham to miss 1st half at Oklahoma
September 1, 2025
Michigan linebacker Jaishawn Barham will miss the first half of the Oklahoma game this week, following his ejection for targeting against New Mexico. Wolverines coach Sherrone Moore said Monday that the appeal to overturn the ruling was denied. Barham sacked Lobos quarterback Jack Layne and was called for targeting in the third quarter of the Wolverines’ 34-17 win. Michigan will play the Sooners on the road Saturday night, bringing Moore back to his alma mater.
