Ohio State and Michigan will enter the game undefeated at a perfect 11-0, which means a trip to Indianapolis for the Big Ten Championship and College Football Playoff hopes are on the line in what will undoubtedly be an instant classic in the historic rivalry.
The Buckeyes are 37-16 all-time when GameDay is on campus for one of its games. Ohio State picked up its latest victory in a 21-10 win over Notre Dame in the season opener. However, its last loss when GameDay attended one of its contests was a 42-27 defeat to the Wolverines, adding another layer to an already intriguing faceoff between the programs.
Looking back further, GameDay was in attendance for the 2006 and 2016 matchups between Ohio State and Michigan. The Buckeyes won The Game in both instances, defeating the Wolverines 42-39 in what many have called "The Game of the Century" in 2006 and claiming a 30-27 double-overtime victory in the latter courtesy of a Curtis Samuel walk-off touchdown in 2016.
