Clincher: Hassan Haskins ices Michigan's win over Ohio State with 5th TD of The Game
Michigan is finally on its way to a win in The Game, putting the finishing touches on a dominant performance vs. The Buckeyes.
When the clock hits all zeroes, it will be Michigan’s first win over Ohio State since 2011. It will also give Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines their first B1G East title and a trip to the B1G Championship Game.
A big reason for Michigan’s dominance has been the work of the ground game vs. the Buckeyes. The Wolverines have nearly hit 300 yards on the ground with Hassan Hasking proving to be the star of the game.
Haskins rolled up 169 yards on the ground and scored 5 touchdowns, tying a program record for rushing touchdowns in a game. His final score of the game was set up by this dramatic hurdle to cap a long run:
