Regardless of recent history, the data suggests that sometime, eventually, an Ohio State football team will lose “The Game.” The chances of never losing to The Team Up North again I would have to imagine are pretty slim (although we can always hope to beat those odds).
So, if we accept that eventually the Buckeyes will fall to the Wolverines, let’s imagine you could control this one aspect of the future. You could control when the Wolverines next beat the Buckeyes.
When would you chose for this happen?
Lose when the Buckeyes are already going to the Big Ten Championship
This would essentially be the situation this year.
