We are just four days away from 'The Game." Michigan football is seeking its fifth straight win over Ohio State in another critical game for both teams.
It means more for Michigan, in terms of this season. If the Wolverines don't beat the Buckeyes this week, they won't make the College Football Playoff.
Ohio State could still make the Big Ten title game with a loss. The Buckeyes will make the College Football Playoff either way.
So it's not do-or-die like it was for these teams in 2021 or 2023. Ohio State lost the Michigan football last season then won the national title as a two-loss team.
