Urban Meyer's first loss to Michigan was a 26-24 heartbreaker in Ohio Stadium.
The No.7 Buckeyes battled the No.6 Wolverines and their cocksure quarterback Jim Harbaugh, who had guaranteed a win in Columbus. Harbaugh delivered. Urban was a 22-year old grad assistant.
He grew up in Ashtabula in a house that had a portrait of Woody Hayes hanging on the wall, so Urban knew this was more than just another loss. Exactly 25 years later he took over the Ohio State football program. He never lost to Michigan again.
Luke Fickell's first loss to Michigan was a 28-0 shellacking in Ann Arbor in 1993.
