Michigan vs Ohio State Preview

Ohio State and Michigan meet on Saturday in the latest installment of the rivalry simply known as “The Game”.

“We are all really happy to be here,” Wolverines offensive lineman Ryan Hayes said via 247 Sports. “We wanted to, we planned on it, and we got here. We’re feeling good. But obviously we know this game — if we don’t win this game, the season really doesn’t mean that much.”

This year’s version of “The Game” has major College Football Playoff implications when the No. 3 Wolverines (11-0) visit the No. 2 Buckeyes (11-0). Michigan won the last meeting in Ann Arbor during the 2021 season when the Wolverines pulled away for a 42-27 victory. Another loss to the Wolverines could cost Ohio State head coach Ryan Day his job, USA Today’s Dan Wolken suggested.

“We’re evaluated by the big games,” Day told reporters via Wolken. “That’s the way it goes here, and certainly we know what comes with it.”

The Wolverines seek to end a nine-game drought at “the Horseshoe” in Columbus. Michigan last won at Ohio State in 2000.

“Got a great group of players who are happy warriors, and they’re on a happy mission,” Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh said via 247 Sports. “And it’s a tight-knit team that has paid the price, they have taken on every challenge to this date, and they’ve attacked it. Ready to play every single game for 60 minutes.

“I love this team. I think they’re made of the right stuff,” he added.

Harbaugh and the Wolverines will enter the most-unfriendly terriroty of all to face a program with arguably the toughest home-field advantage in the nation. The Buckeyes dominated at home for much of this season with the exception of the season-opener against then-No. 5 Notre Dame. The Irish went toe-to-toe with the Buckeyes before pulling away for a 21-10 victory on September 3.

Both Ohio State and Michigan had scares in recent weeks. Ohio State rested starters on a soggy afternoon in Evanston, Illinois, and squeaked past Northwestern 21-7 on November 5. Maryland stuck around with the Buckeyes on November 19, but ultimately the Buckeyes prevailed 43-30 on the road. Michigan had the closest call of all with a 19-17 last-second comeback win over Illinois on November 19.

“The way this team is, I mean, they’re together. A team,” Harbaugh said via 247 Sports. “It’s not anxious, it’s not nervous. They don’t play in fear. They don’t flinch. They’re not angry. They play with joy and gusto every single time they go out there.”
