One of the excited fans from the stadium said, “I have already seen a national championship beat them 20 times in a row, baby.” Although Michigan leads the all-time series with 61-51-6, today’s game holds more significance because the Buckeyes have the foundation set and they are ruling the No. 2 position in the college football rankings from the past few weeks.
Moving forward, let’s see the reactions from Buckeys fans.
Buckeyes fans choose Michigan’s defeat over national championship
Michigan and Buckeyes played against each other for the first time in 1897. From 1918 to 2020, fans got to witness the rivalry game, but the streak ended in 2020. But why? Due to the pandemic, Michigan decided not to travel and guess what? That year, the Buckeyes were going to enter the game with a solid 5-0 record. Michigan’s decision added fuel to their fire and since 2020, the rivalry has taken a new direction.

Now, keeping all this in mind, Buckeyes fans in the stadium want to see Michigan losing live. A die-hard Buckeyes fan said, “I’d rather beat Michigan every single year.” The intensity is real! Another fan chimed in with the same sentiment and added, “I’d rather beat that team up north every year.” It looks like Buckeyes fans have forgotten that Michigan is the defending champion and last year they defeated Buckeyes by 24-30.
A fan who colored his face half red and half grey in support of Buckeyes said, Choice is a choice; “Beat Michiga every single year 20 times in a row.” Ahh, Buckeyes fans have made this look so easy. Hold on! Two girls joined the debate and, without hesitating, chose to witness Michigan losing and said, “Michigan baby,” while another shouted, “Michigan, come on.”
Two other loyal supporters want Buckeyes to win this season and why not? They have really outperformed their opponents this season. “I would rather win a championship this year.” While others simply added, “National Championship.”
