Controversial calls seems to be a growing theme for the annual matchup between Ohio State and Michigan. Saturday was no exception.
On one play in particular, Michigan wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones appeared to be held by a Buckeyes defender, prohibiting the Wolverine freshman from making a play. But there was no flag on the play and Ohio State made the stop.
That didn’t sit well with Peoples-Jones.
After the game, Peoples-Jones saw an image on Twitter of the controversial call, which shows Ohio State’s Denzel Ward pretty clearly holding the receiver. Still frustrated after the loss, Peoples-Jones fired off a tweet, “Pass interference? Or am I tripping.”

Yeah, the Buckeyes probably got away with one there.
Ohio State went on to win the game 31-20, claiming its sixth straight win over the Wolverines.
