In an appearance on the “Footbahlin’” podcast with Ben Roethlisberger, Will Howard and Jack Sawyer answered a question that has divided Buckeye Nation for over 100 years.
“Is it OK to lose to Michigan and win a national championship, or would you rather beat Michigan and not win a national championship? What’s more important?” Roethlisberger, a Pittsburgh Steelers legend, asked the former Ohio State stars and current Pittsburgh rookies.
“Winning a national championship,” Sawyer answered. “And don’t get – that takes no emphasis off how important The Game is.”
“I understand that,” Roethlisberger responded before allowing Sawyer to continue.
