Oregon football was officially eliminated from Big Ten Championship game contention when Ohio State defeated Michigan Saturday morning.

The No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes look to end a four-game losing streak to their arch rivals on Saturday, Nov. 29 when they visit the No. 15 Michigan Wolverines.

No. 1 Ohio State put a bow on its perfect regular season and snapped a four-game losing streak to No. 15 Michigan with a dominant 27-9 win Saturday. The Buckeyes also secured their first Big Ten Championship Game appearance since 2021 and their first 12-0 record since 2019, coach Ryan Day's first full season leading the program.

Michigan players planted a Michigan flag at midfield after an upset win over Ohio State last season, before a brawl broke out between both teams. Police were then called over to break up the fights, and pepper spray was even used. Both schools were fined $100,000 for their roles in the altercation.

To the victor go the spoils and Ohio State is taking it's rightful victory lap this weekend. After getting a 27-9 win over the Wolverines four years in the making, several members of the Buckeyes are making waves on social media — including superstar wide receiver Jeremiah Smith.

Julian Sayin threw three touchdown passes, including a 35-yarder to Jeremiah Smith on a fourth down in the second quarter, and No. 1 Ohio State beat No. 15 Michigan 27-9 in a dominant performance.

Joshua Perry, Ahmed Fareed, Chris Simms and Nicole Auerbach look ahead to the Big Ten Championship Game between undefeated teams in No. 1 Ohio State and No. 2 Indiana.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Michigan’s identity over the course of its four-game winning streak against arch rival Ohio State has been rooted in the trenches. An offensive line determined to push their opponent back by any means necessary, and a ferocious, dominating defensive line that forces the Buckeyes to throw the football.

But until Ohio State defensive coordinator Matt Patricia saved Day’s gold pants seat during Saturday’s 27-9 win over Michigan, nobody used a tool that predates the rivalry: A No. 2 pencil.

Ohio State’s defense held Michigan without a touchdown, although the Wolverines got out to 6-0 lead in the first quarter. Michigan’s freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood was ineffective as he went 8-for-18 passing with 63 yards and an interception which sealed the game for the Buckeyes.

Michigan managed just 163 yards of offense and never reached the end zone. The run game showed some promise early before Jordan Marshall exited with an injury. It’s clear the Buckeyes, who entered the game ranked first nationally in points and yards per game allowed, were confident.
