Jim Harbaugh excited to play for 'all the marbles' vs. Ohio State
We’ve been down this road before, but Michigan is gearing up for yet another shot to take down Ohio State.
After missing the 2020 edition of The Game due to COVID, the two sides will renew the rivalry with traditionally high stakes. Unfortunately, recent tradition has also called for an Ohio State victory.
In 2019, it was a No. 2 Ohio State squad blowing out No. 10 Michigan in Ann Arbor. The Buckeyes are also riding an 8-game winning streak in the series while scoring 40+ points in 5 of those games.
Still, don’t expect Jim Harbaugh or the Wolverines to be daunted by the task at hand or the stakes involved. After taking down Maryland, Harbaugh said Michigan is looking forward to a chance to win all the marbles:
“We want to finish it. We want to win all the marbles” — Harbaugh

To do that, the Wolverines will have to go through the Buckeyes and secure a win in the B1G Championship Game. Wins in those games would more than likely net Michigan a spot in the College Football Playoff.
Can the Wolverines finally pull it off? Saturday’s kickoff will be at 12 pm EST on FOX.
