The Michigan Wolverines defeated the Ohio State Buckeyes on the gridiron on Saturday afternoon, breaking a winless streak against their chief rivals of eight straight games and earning their first ever Big Ten East title; they’ll be competing for the Big Ten Championship this Saturday against Iowa.
And you can bet that more than a few members of the Detroit Red Wings were watching – specifically captain Dylan Larkin, a Michigan graduate and Ohio native Alex Nedeljkovic.
The two made a bet – and when it was all said and done, it was Nedeljkovic who had to pay up by wearing a personalized Michigan Wolverines Larkin jersey:
