Ohio State and Michigan are set for a major showdown in Ann Arbor on Saturday, but bad weather is expected throughout the day. Any time the weather is a factor in a game it adds a new wrinkle that is tough to mimic in practice.
However, both the Buckeyes and Wolverines have had to overcome precipitation and winds to win games this season. In the rain, the team who is able to run the ball more efficiently and effectively usually wins the game.
This has also been the case in The Game as the last eighteen winners have won the rushing battle.
