It was a top 10 battle at the Horseshoe in 2018, with parking on High Street probably darn near impossible. The Wolverines were ranked fourth, and the Buckeyes were 10th. Both teams were coming off extremely close tests against lesser opponents—Michigan having trouble with Indiana and Ohio State winning by one—one!—point over Maryland.
And this game started off close, with the Buckeyes leading at halftime, 24-19. No question, the second half would be a battle of coaching wits, a chess match so clo—oh my, what in the world just happened?!
When the Haskins-led air attack and the Weber-Dobbins ground assault finally ceased, the score was 62-39. The unexpected thrashing would give the Buckeyes a record-tying seventh consecutive victory—Urban’s last as head coach.
