Earlier this week, Ryan Day made it clear he sees Ohio State-Michigan as war.
The sixth-year head coach continued to use that imagery in his appearance on The Ryan Day Radio Show this week, describing how the Buckeyes will approach their battle with the Wolverines on Saturday.
"It's like going to war. You only pack what you need," he said. "You don't need all the other stuff in that backpack. You take what you need. What you use best – whatever weapons you use best – that's what you bring to war."
Day said he wants to win The Game for his players this weekend, especially Ohio State's seniors who have played their entire careers without winning a pair of Gold Pants.
