Postgame reactions: Michigan wasn't afraid of 'buzzsaw' Ohio State
COLUMBUS – The Michigan Wolverines pulled off what most thought was unthinkable when it beat No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 on the road Saturday, moving to 7-5 on the season and winning their fourth-straight game in the rivalry.
TheWolverine.com’s Anthony Broome and former Michigan defensive lineman Ryan Van Bergen discuss a stunning upset and why it showed that head coach Sherrone Moore is the right man for the job after running it back for another victory.
“They’ve heard how big of an underdog they were,” Van Bergen said. “They’ve heard the buzzsaw that is Ohio state. They’ve heard Gus Johnson repeatedly say ‘the world famous Ohio Sate Buckeyes’ and there’s got to be a little chip, and I think you saw it come out today on the field. This is still the Michigan Wolverines that have dominated the Ohio State Buckeyes and not just beat them in football games by having a higher score at the end of the game, but physically dominating them, winning the line of scrimmage, better tackling, more physical, maintaining possession of the football, grinding it out on the run game.
“And I have to just tip my cap to Sherrone Moore to Wink Martindale, and even a slight tip to Kurt Campbell because in order for Michigan to pull this off, one thing had to happen. Ohio State had to play some of their worst football, which thank God they were able to for four quarters, and then Michigan had to play the most complimentary of football it could up to its capacity. But overall, Moore on the sideline getting animated, drawing the bow and shooting the arrow there at the end. I’m here for that. I’ve been here all season for that and waiting for this Moore to come out.
“To have the big commitment news last week and then to finish in Columbus with a win against a ranked Ohio State team. The future looks bright and we were all four weeks ago sitting here shaking our heads saying we have no idea where this is going, but this is exciting and I’m thrilled for these guys to get this win.”
