Most football fans simply call it “The Game,” but for Michigan and Ohio State fans, it’s far more than just a game. When the Wolverines and Buckeyes meet for their annual rivalry game, it’s perhaps the most intense annual battle in all of sports. And this year, it’s all going down on Thanksgiving weekend!
Last year, Michigan upset Ohio State for its fourth straight victory in the all-time series. After the 13-10 tug-of-war concluded, Wolverines edge rusher Derrick Moore attempted to plant the team’s flag at midfield on the Ohio Stadium logo. A massive scuffle ensued, and Buckeyes linebacker Jack Sawyer ultimately came away with the flag.
So, you might say there’s some extra drama attached to this year’s game. Then again, it kind of always feels like that. These teams have deep-rooted hatred for one another, dating back to 1897. Heck, these states used to hate each other, with land disputes and border issues going back generations!
