CHICAGO – No current player on Michigan’s football team has ever won a game against Ohio State.
Going into the 2018 season, Ohio State has won six straight games against Michigan – every game in the annual rivalry since Urban Meyer became Ohio State’s coach, and each of the first three since Jim Harbaugh became Michigan’s coach – with the Wolverines’ last win over the Buckeyes coming in 2011.
Combine that with the fact that Michigan has also struggled against its other rival, Michigan State – losing four of its last five and eight of its last 10 games against the Spartans, including a 14-10 loss in 2017 – and Harbaugh and the Wolverines’ three players who met with reporters at Big Ten Media Days earlier this week faced a barrage of questions about their lack of success in their biggest games of the year.
