The Game IS the best rivalry in CFB and it’s not even close. 119 games tracing back to 1897; 2,005 combined wins, produced 1,945 combined AP Top 25 appearances, decided 19 national champions.
No other rivalry can say anything close to any of that
So genuine question for Ohio state fans, does the game matter or not because all I’m hearing is that Ohio state fans don’t care they lost to Michigan last year because they won the natty but they’ll turn around and say the game is the best rivalry in CFB
