OSU had a ton of help from the referees. Eventually announcers were like, WTF?

It's hard to beat the opposing team AND the refs.

It's to the financial benefit of the Big10, NCAA, sponsors, etc... for OSU to win.
To be fair, when Michigan was 11-0, 12-0, it was to the same benefit for them to win. It's all about $$$ and who stands to get it. This year it's OSU.

How that "headbutt" and not being ejected impacted the rest of the game. Not at all.

Several calls leading to SCORES for OSU IMPACTED the game.

'Nuff said.

How about being dominated in the time of possession 40 plus minutes vs. 19 ? or total yards Ohio State 419- Michigan 163. No score for UM the entire 2nd half and gained a whopping -9 yards rushing. I suppose the refs did that too.

I was too small to play high school football but I played sports in college (tennis) and later
rugby is crap. This Ohio State has 2 more goals win the big ten title game and repeat as
National Champions. And yes it is no longer a college sport but professional.

you were clearly better than after losing to that same team 4 straight times despite being the better team every time. No wonder Ohio State fans are always ranked in the top 5 of most insufferable fans.
