It’s officially rivalry week. Ever since the final play of Saturday’s game against Maryland, Ohio State has focused its attention on Michigan.
But on Sunday, it became officially official. As has become custom, Ohio State’s marching band paid a visit to the football team to prepare for Saturday’s game against the Wolverines. Players seemed to be enjoying themselves before jumping into the serious nature of “The Game.”
We even saw Rashod Berry direct the band and Baron Browning showcase some incredible dance moves.

It’s always a fun gathering in Columbus.
But things will take a serious turn pretty quickly. With both Ohio State and Michigan entering Saturday’s game at 10-1, the winner will punch a ticket to the B1G Championship Game.
A chance at reaching the College Football Playoff is also on the line.
This is always a really special moment for The Best Damn Band in the Land and the football team and it appears that everyone enjoyed the yearly tradition. But that’ll be the end of the fun and games this week in Columbus.
