That wasn't how Ohio State wanted to end its season.
After talking all year about avenging last season's defeat against Michigan, the Buckeyes fell for a second straight year to their archrival, losing 45-23 on Saturday at Ohio Stadium.
Despite leading 20-17 at halftime, OSU was outplayed by Michigan in the second half, as the Buckeyes were only held to three points for the final two quarters.
