On Saturday afternoon, the Michigan Wolverines bullied the bully by dominating the Ohio State Buckeyes on both sides of the ball on way to a 42-27 win in Ann Arbor.
From the opening snap of the game, the Wolverines controlled the play in the trenches and they were clearly the tougher team.
On Monday night, Michigan OC Josh Gattis joined Jon Jansen on the ‘Inside Michigan Football’ radio show and he used the opportunity to say that Ohio State is “not a tough team.”
From Wolverines Wire:
“Started fast in setting the tone for the game and really creating the identity of the game that we were going to dominate on both fronts, not just offensive line but defensive line as well, just being able to smash them however we could and really set the tone,” Gattis said. “They’re a good team. They’re a good team. They’re a finesse team, they’re not a tough team. And we knew that going into the game that we can out-physical them, we can out-tough and that was gonna be the key to the game, and that’s what we prepared for all year long. You saw earlier this year in the game they lost to Oregon, Oregon was the most physical team on the field. That’s the way they lost, and we committed to that recipe, and it paid off.”
Buckeys fans will not like this but anyone who watched even 5 seconds of the game know that what Gattis said is true.
