Ohio State should feel great about the mental edge they have over TTUN
This offseason has been nothing but a win for the Buckeyes over the Wolverines. They crushed them so badly last season that they had to fire their head coach. The new head coach doesn't understand the rivalry, and Michigan's quarterback thinks this game is just like any other one.
Day has to be jumping for joy in his office in the Woody when he hears these comments. He knows he has the Wolverines right where he wants them. The entire Michigan program is already mentally preparing to lose when that game rolls around, which is hilarious.
Of course, there are several months between now and The Game. Ohio State has a brutal schedule. They will be focused on winning their other games before TTUN comes to town. The first big one is that matchup with Texas in Week 2. That will be a tough environment to win in.
Perhaps last year's game was the realization that TTUN is a broken program. It will take years to undo the damage of the cheating scandal. Now that they can't skirt the rules anymore, they are in trouble on the field.
