When two titans of college football in the Michigan Wolverines and the Ohio State Buckeyes collide, there are bound to be some endings that can be debated for eternity, and the 1973 matchup between the two programs may be at the top of that list.
Both Bo Schembechler and Woody Hayes had their teams playing at the highest level heading into their most important game of the year, The Game, at The Big House as the No. 4 Wolverines hosted the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes.
Ohio State had one of the top defenses in the land allowing only 33 points in their first nine regular-season games, 13 of which came in their previous 55-13 beatdown of Iowa.
