Woodson: 'I do need for us to beat Ohio State'

Michigan Heisman Trophy winner Charles Woodson keeps close tabs on the Wolverines even during his busy NFL season, and he has not been disappointed.

Woodson had trumpeted Jim Harbaugh as a coach who would re-energize the Michigan program and restore its luster, and on the eve of the Michigan-Ohio State game, in which Woodson distinguished himself in 1997 enroute to the Heisman Trophy and a national championship, he can’t say enough about how much the team has improved.

Michigan (9-2, 6-1 Big Ten) plays Ohio State (10-1, 6-1) Saturday at Michigan Stadium. The Buckeyes have won 11 of the last 13 meetings in the rivalry.
