Donovan Jackson has been open about the emotional toll last year’s Michigan game took on him personally. Even if it’s difficult to discuss.
The average college football game contains more than 150 plays. To say any one player’s performance on any one play cost a team a game on its own is lunacy.
That said, on Ohio State’s final offensive play against the Wolverines in 2023, Jackson tripped over the leg of center Carson Hinzman while setting up to block defensive end Jaylen Harrell. Harrell hit quarterback Kyle McCord as he released the football and Michigan intercepted the resulting duck of a pass to seal a 30-24 win.
