Everything at stake in The Game for Michigan against Ohio State

The Michigan Wolverines face a pivotal moment in their storied football history as they gear up for ‘The Game’ against arch-rivals Ohio State.

The stakes have never been higher, with not just a spot in the College Football Playoff on the line, but also the implications for the future of college football with the 12-team playoff, suspended head coach Jim Harbaugh’s legacy and the aspirations of numerous players set to leave for the NFL or graduation after the season.

The season has been tumultuous for Michigan, marked notably by the absence of Harbaugh, suspended for three games amid advanced-scouting allegations.
