2021 notes: Michigan's 2021 schedule was rearranged when the MSU/Indiana home/road switchback was made in 2020. The change was originally made in 2014, giving MSU two home games in a row, and putting them on Michigan's same home/road schedule as Ohio State (and Notre Dame). This had the intended effect of damaging Dave Brandon, but also ruined the balance of Michigan State's and Indiana's schedules, since they would each be hosting schedule anchors Michigan and Ohio State the same years. The Big Ten used the 2020 season to rectify this, so MSU will now be opposite Ohio State on Michigan's schedule going forward.

2022 notes: The MSU, IU, and Nebraska games are likely to be moved around to break up the homestands now that IU/MSU have flipped back on their home/road years. Michigan's planned home and home with UCLA was canceled. They would have had a home game in 2022 and visited in 2023.
