Browns Daily Dose Summary: Ohio State Rolls Michigan, 27–9
Ohio State delivered a statement win in Ann Arbor, dominating No. 15 Michigan 27–9 behind a poised performance from redshirt freshman QB Julian Sayin. After throwing an early interception, Sayin settled in and carved up the Wolverines’ defense, finishing 19-of-26 for 233 yards and three touchdowns—his sixth game this season with at least three scoring throws.

Michigan opened strong with two field goals and an interception, but once Ohio State’s offense found rhythm, the Buckeyes took control. Sayin was perfect on late downs in the first half (6-for-6, 68 yards, 2 TDs), including a fourth-down strike to Jeremiah Smith and a late scoring toss to Brandon Inniss that pushed the lead to 17–9 at halftime.

The Buckeyes’ knockout punch came in the third quarter when Sayin dropped a 50-yard touchdown to Carnell Tate, stretching the advantage against a Michigan offense that struggled to generate any explosive plays. The Wolverines finished with just 63 passing yards, and their ground game managed only 100 yards against the nation’s top defense.
Ohio State sealed it with a brutal, 20-play, 81-yard drive that drained nearly 12 minutes of clock, ending with a field goal that removed any doubt.
The win moves Ohio State to 12–0 and likely secures a first-round bye in the College Football Playoff. Ryan Day, who entered the matchup under pressure after four straight losses in The Game, quieted critics with a decisive rivalry victory.
