10 Things We Learned from a Sixth Straight Win over Michigan
By Brandon Castel

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Another year, another Jim Tressel victory over Michigan.

You may not like how he does it, but Tressel has mastered the art of beating the Wolverines unlike any other coach in school history.

Yes, that includes Woody Hayes.

Not since the turn of the century, that would be the 20th century, as in 1900-1910, has a coach won eight games in a decade of the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry.

We take a look at 10 things we learned from Tressel’s sixth straight win over Michigan, his eighth in nine seasons in Columbus.

10. Brandon Graham is a first-round NFL talent. Even that might not do him justice, but this isn’t about projecting draft stock. The Buckeyes specifically game-planned to stop Michigan’s one explosive defensive player and even that couldn’t keep Graham from making four big stops in the backfield, including an 8-yard sack on Pryor. Playing his very last game as a Wolverine, Graham beat double-teams and even ran down Pryor from behind as he proved to be as good or better than any of the other defensive ends Ohio State has faced this season.

9. Losing Ryan Mallett set Michigan back three years, minimum. No offense to Tate Forcier – who despite his five turnovers, showed some glimpses of ability against the Buckeye defense – but it’s interesting to think what this game might have been like with Ryan Mallett under center running Lloyd Carr’s offense (or really anyone’s but Rich Rodriguez). Mallett was a five-star stud coming out of high school and watching him play at Arkansas (313 yards, 5 TD’s today) it’s hard to think this kid won’t be playing on Sunday’s in the near future. He has a rocket arm and the numbers he has put up in his first season at Arkansas (2,885 yards, 23 TD’s, 4 INT’s) are mind-boggling considering he is playing against SEC defenses every week.
