Michigan got beaten up by Rutgers in the second half at home last weekend but still found a way to win 20-13. The Wolverines looked great in the first half but weren’t as physical as the Scarlet Knights in the last thirty minutes of the game. Then, we saw this today from Ohio State.
It’s the first time we have like opponents to compare, and of course, there are all kinds of disclaimers to throw on top of it, but Ohio State was head and shoulders above Rutgers, and frankly, Michigan, with the matchup of like opponents.
For all the praise Michigan has gotten this year, the Wolverines might have raised their eyebrows just a bit over what OSU did on Saturday.
