The National Champions and still undefeated Ohio State (1) vs Michigan (15) 9-2 **Game Thread**

The Den
1

It’s finally here — the one game every year that turns normal adults into unstable emotional gamblers.

The defending National Champs, still undefeated, vs. a Michigan team that actually has something real to play for this season - which already makes this infinitely more interesting than last year.

I was born a Buckeye, lived among Wolverines, root for the Lions, and have therefore accepted that joy is always conditional.

No excuses today. No signs stolen. No conspiracy theories pre-loaded. Just 60 minutes of football that will decide which fanbase becomes insufferable…and which one pretends they never cared that much anyway.

Here’s to a clean game, no injuries, strong drinks, and friendships that will need to be repaired by Tuesday.

Let the chaos begin.

We will never be football friends until you admit that OSU & MSU fans have over played the signal stealing card. Still talking about it three years later :man_facepalming:

I am logging out for today, but I wanted to post on here first to let everyone know that I’m not dead.

Ohio State has lost every single game to TTUN since I joined this board.

NO MORE will I be on this board to let that happen again!

lol, you guys will win today. Don’t be superstitious. Ohio State is the much better team. That defense is the best in college football.

I was going to take my son to the game today, but something came up. It is a fun game to go to. Maybe in two years we’ll try it again.

This is the best OSU team I’ve ever seen. Michigan starts what, 6 freshmen on offense.

If making bets was my thing I’d put big money on OSU

Yeah, we are going to get destroyed. Even Ryan Day can’t fuk this up…can he?

Michigan needs another year. I’m guessing this rivalry becomes more back and forth, but I was certainly wrong on that for about 10 years.

Clearly this thread was only created because OP is confident the Buckeyes have a huge upper hand are going to win this game. So congrats on going out on a limb here.

I don’t gamble, but I thought The Game last year showed why you should never bet on a rivalry matchup. They’re often closer than they should be and all it can take is one very unlikely 3rd and long conversion to tip the result.

Also, Ryan Day is probably walking around Ann Arbor with his cheeks clenched so tight that you could use his ass to crack walnuts. This rivalry has been extremely unkind to him.

Oh yeah, I’m totally setting myself up for disaster. The reality is I’m shitting bricks rn. :joy:

See you on the other side. Also, please do everything the opposite of whatever you’ve done the past five years!

The streaks are great for the winning team and insufferable for the losing. Back and forth is better for sure.

My suspicion is that Mich losing the two awesome DTs to the draft may be the difference (objectively as much as I can be). But if it snows or something, this game is up for grabs IMO.

I can’t watch the game today. If Michigan wins I’ll watch it later. If they lose, well, I’ll just speed through the highlights.

There should have been no excuses last year either (or honestly ever). OSU has legitimately lost to Michigan for four years in a row.
