Here we go again. The #2-ranked Buckeyes travel to Ann Arbor at the end of the regular season to play the #5 Wolverines, and everything’s on the line. A slot in the Big Ten championship game, a playoff bid, a crack at the national championship. It’s certainly not the first time that the stakes have been so high, but it’s been a while.
A faceoff between highly-ranked teams
By my calculations, the Buckeyes and Wolverines have faced off 11 previous times when both teams were ranked in the top five nationally. Saturday’s game will be number 12.
