No love lost: Garrett Wilson, Vincent Gray have to be separated following heated exchange
Published:
Nothing ramps up emotions like a rivalry game with two teams that really don’t like each other. For Michigan and Ohio State, it’s nothing new seeing action on the sidelines after the play, and for Buckeyes wide receiver Garrett Wilson and Wolverines defensive back Vincent Gray the after-play mix-up is inevitable.
We’ve seen it before, and now we see it again. So today’s version of The Game isn’t going to be any different.
With the Wolverines on top 7-3, Buckeyes quarterback CJ Stroud found Wilson early to start the drive, and the sideline action began.

The final play of the drive, Wilson went up with an exciting grab of a Stroud pass for a 25-yard circus catch to put OSU up 10-7 with 9:12 left in the half.
Hassan Haskins would score from 1 yard out on the next drive to put Michigan back on top, and a Noah Ruggles field goal would pull the Buckeyes to within 1, to move the score to with 14-13 Michigan at the half.
