It’s the week Ohio State’s head coach Ryan Day has been waiting for, and after three years of losing to his biggest rival, Michigan, he can put away the narrative that he can’t beat the school Up North.
Michigan and Ohio State will kick off from the Horseshoe at 12:00 PM ET Saturday, but before the big matchup even begins, fans are going at it, and it has nothing to do with the game.
On Tuesday, the Buckeyes lost 2025 four-star defensive end London Merritt, who decommitted from the program.

Of course, Ohio State losing a star player days before the Michigan game made Wolverine fans come out and make fun of their arch-rival, and here were some of their reactions.
