    The Ohio State vs. Michigan rivalry has been crazy the last nine days, and on Sunday, it got a lot worse for Buckeye fans.

    Over a week ago, Michigan went into the Horseshoe and knocked off the Buckeyes for the fourth straight season, ending any chance of them playing in the Big Ten title. A week later, a former Ohio State quarterback’s son committed to Michigan.

    Ohio State Fans Are Not Happy With Michigan

    Current ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit’s son, Chase, committed to Michigan over the weekend.

    Chase is from Cincinnati and played high school football at St. Xavier. According to most outlets, he is a three-star recruit.

    Many Ohio State fans were not happy Herbstreit committed to Michigan, and one of the best Buckeye fans in the country brought up a good point.

    Ohio’s Tate from Barstool Sports tweeted, “Does Kirk Herbstreit not realize his son is being used as a Pawn in The Game? The kid is a 0-star QB and behind Bryce Underwood. Michigan is using him to troll Ohio State and nothing else. And they fell for it.”

    Kirk Herbstreit will be paid upwards of $10+ million as the color commentator next to Al Michaels in the booth. Herbstreit will continue his role at ESPN as the lead college football analyst.

    According to 247sports.com, Herbstreit only received one offer from any school, and it was Michigan, so there is a good chance they only gave him an offer to troll Ohio State.

    Michigan knew what they were doing, and it made a lot of Buckeye fans mad for no reason. It’s not like Herbstreit is a great player. He will be a waste of a roster spot and never see the field.
