The matchup between Ohio State and Michigan is consistently one of the most significant games of the college football season.
After many years of dominance by the Buckeyes, Michigan has recently taken the lead, winning four consecutive games, including a close 13-10 victory on Saturday.
Michigan’s record improved to 7-5 following the victory, but it hasn’t lived up to expectations since last season’s National Championship victory.
Still, fans and alumni are basking in the victory, including the quarterback of that aforementioned national championship team, J.J. McCarthy, the current Minnesota Vikings rookie quarterback.
McCarthy posted on Instagram following the game, sharing a meme from “The Office” depicting Jim Halpert and Dwight Schrute holding up a sign that says, “1,827 days since our last loss vs. Ohio State.”

Coincidentally, Ohio State has lost all four of its most recent matchups while being ranked No. 2 in the nation.
As embarrassing as this loss was, given that it took them out of the mix for the Big Ten Conference Championship game, the Buckeyes’ place in the College Football Playoff should be unaffected.
Ohio State can have the last laugh if they can win the National Championship, but for now, fans are fed up with losing to the Wolverines.
The loss was only made worse by the fact that Michigan emphatically planted their flag at midfield of Ohio Stadium and started a massive fracas that resulted in multiple players getting pepper sprayed by the cops, all while head coach Ryan Day stood by confused.
It wasn’t the best day to be a Buckeye.
