Michigan has won four straight matchups in the rivalry, capped by a shocking win in Columbus last season — though the loss didn’t keep Ohio State from making a national title run.
The programs now enter a new era at quarterback.
Julian Sayin, a sophomore who spent last year playing behind Will Howard and Devin Brown, is the favorite to start for the Buckeyes.

A legal dispute between former Ohio State receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. and Fanatics has been discontinued, according to records filed with the New York Supreme Court on Thursday.
