ANN ARBOR, Mich. (WXYZ) -- Michigan Stadium will feature blue end zones this season for the first time in the history of the university's football program.

Michigan made the announcement Friday on social media.

 

 

The end zone facelift is part of a larger turf replacement project this summer at Michigan Stadium and Schembechler Hall.

The Detroit Lions recently made a similar change, coloring the Ford Field end zones blue in 2016.

The Wolverines' home opener is scheduled for September 8 against Western Michigan.
