It is upon us.

The Game between Michigan and Ohio State that everyone has been waiting for his here on Saturday at noon on ABC. The nation will be watching and the stakes have arguably never been higher for the two teams.

A win will send the third-ranked Wolverines to their first ever Big Ten title game as East division champs, while an OSU victory does not send them to Indy but probably gets them into the College Football Playoff.

The Buckeyes ran the Wolverines right off the field in the inaugural meeting between Jim Harbaugh and Urban Meyer by a score of 42-13, but this year’s showdown figures to be much closer with revenge fueling Michigan in this matchup. OSU has won four straight and 11 of the last 12 in this rivalry.

This game comes down to the battle in the trenches, as most do in this sport. Michigan has the ability to control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the football and will have to bring their best effort yet into the showdown against their hated rivals.

The Buckeyes bring an offense that gives Michigan fits with a spread, up-tempo look and a running quarterback in JT Barrett that had his way in this game last season.

Expect this showdown to live up to the hype and be close to the very end.
