Ohio State Makes it Five Straight Over Michigan

Published 22 November 08 09:45 PM | scoutmom

Just to make sure this was TRULY the worst season in 129 years for Michigan, Ohio State whipped 'em good today, winning their fifth straight game - the first time in 105 meetings to win 5 straight - over the hapless Wolverines by an incredibly lopsided 42-7. Ohio State's margin was the biggest by either team in the rivalry since Woody Hayes was coach and oversaw a 50-14 rout of Michigan in 1968.

And even though Penn State has wrapped up the Big 10 Conference, by beating Michigan State and guaranteeing a trip to the Rose Bowl, 10th-ranked Ohio State is right behind them.  Both have a 7-1 conference record, but Penn State is 11-1 overall, Ohio is 10-2.  The Big 10 is certainly the powerhouse in NCAA football this year, with 4 teams ranked in the top 25:

Penn State #8

Ohio State #10

Michigan State # 15

Northwestern #24
