Michigan delivered a dominating performance against Ohio State in “The Game” as the Wolverines defeated the Buckeyes, 45–23, on Saturday at Ohio Stadium.
The Wolverines entered Saturday’s game ranked No. 3 in the latest College Football Playoff rankings while the Buckeyes were notch above them at No. 2. However, following Michigan’s second consecutive win against its longtime rival that included the Wolverines trouncing the Buckeyes 21–3 in the fourth quarter, Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren weighed on why both teams should be among the top four teams in college football vying for the national championship.
“You look at all the games you watch,” Warren said, in part, to ESPN. “Put even the rankings to the side. If you ask yourself, who are the teams that are better than these two football teams in the country? These are two of the four best teams in the country. By far.”
