Soaking in some OSU-Michigan nostalgia

This year’s Ohio State-Michigan matchup doesn’t look like it will go down as a high point in the storied college football series. Face it: You need some help getting psyched for this year’s game.

Well, you can always relive the “good old days.” The Big Ten Network (Channel 78 on Time Warner digital cable) has the following plans for its Greatest Games feature this week:

1969 — Ohio State at Michigan Debuts: Tuesday, Nov. 18, 4:30 p.m. Replay: Tuesday at midnight ET Synopsis: Woody Hayes and top-ranked Ohio State went to Ann Arbor with a 22-game winning streak only to be upset by Bo Schembechler and a tenacious Wolverine defense 24-12. This game marked the start of what became known as the “Ten Year War.”

1974 — Michigan at Ohio State Debuts: Thursday, Nov. 20, 2 p.m. Replay: Friday, Nov. 21, 8 p.m. Synopsis: After the 1973 classic between the two powerhouses ended in a tie, both teams wanted to leave no questions as to who deserved the 1975 Rose bowl berth. Archie Griffin notched his 22nd straight game with at least 100 yards rushing and the Buckeyes came away with the 12-10 victory when Michigan missed its third field goal of the day as time expired.
