In a game of this magnitude, so much of the attention has been focused on the stars — and rightfully so. On the Ohio State side, guys like Marvin Harrison Jr., TreVeyon Henderson, Denzel Burke and Sonny Styles have been the focal point, while JJ McCarthy, Blake Corum, Will Johnson and Mike Sainristil lead the charge for Michigan.
Harrison Jr. is the best player in this matchup, and college football at large for what its worth, and the other big names for each program will also be pivotal in the final outcome of The Game. But what if I told you that one of the most important players for the Buckeyes in this game might be a guy that doesn’t even start?
