A native of Galena, Ohio, located just a half-hour drive from Ohio Stadium, Joshua Perry's relationship with the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry isn't unlike that of the other 22-year-olds who grew up around "The Game."
In the '90s, he saw Wolverines head coach Lloyd Carr dominate and ultimately be one of the primary reasons for the firing of John Cooper following the 2000 season. That was followed by an ongoing stretch that's seen the Buckeyes win 11 of their last 13 matchups against "That Team Up North," which now finds itself on its third head coach since Carr retired eight years ago.
