The matchup between the No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes and No. 5 Michigan Wolverines has been a battle in the snow through the first two quarters.
The Big House is rocking Saturday afternoon as this game highlights an exciting Rivalry Week across college football. This storied feud between two powerhouse programs has a lot on the line. The winner has a greater than 70% chance of making the College Football Playoff, according to ESPN’s Playoff Predictor. The loser of this season’s rivalry will have little to no chance of making the tournament.
The first two quarters had trickeration, highlight-worthy catches and plenty of flurries.
