Michigan shocks No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 on late FG
Ohio State Buckeyes wide receiver Emeka Egbuka (2) is updended by Michigan Wolverines defensive back Quinten Johnson (28) and Michigan Wolverines defensive back Brandyn Hillman (6) during the first half of Saturday’s NCAA Division I football game at Ohio Stadium. Dominic Zvada kicked a 21-yard field goal with 45 seconds left as Michigan shocked No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 in Columbus on Saturday.
The Wolverines (7-5, 5-4 Big Ten) were a three-touchdown underdog but were helped by the mistake-prone Buckeyes (10-2, 7-2), who committed two turnovers and missed two field goals as Michigan won its fourth straight in the series.
The loss likely prevented the Buckeyes from playing Oregon in the Big Ten championship game on Dec. 7. To play in the Big Ten championship, Ohio State needs No. 4 Penn State and No. 10 Indiana to lose on Saturday.
Ohio State defensive end Jack Sawyer intercepted Davis Warren at the goal line and returned it 12 yards with 7:48 left in regulation, but the Buckeyes had to punt. Michigan used 11 plays to go 57 yards and exhausted 5:28 off the clock on the winning drive.
Kalel Mulling had 116 yards and a touchdown on 32 carries for the Wolverines.
Ohio State quarterback Will Howard was intercepted by Makari Paige at the Michigan 9 with 4:51 left in the third. Ohio State's Caleb Downs three plays later intercepted a Warren pass at the Wolverines 16 but the drive stalled. Jayden Fielding missed for a second time, this one from 34 yards.
The Buckeyes took a 3-0 lead on a 29-yard field goal by Jayden Fielding but the momentum and score changed, surprisingly after an Ohio State goal-line stand.
Mullings was stopped for no gain on fourth-and-1 from the Ohio State 3, but on the Buckeyes' possession, Aamir Hall intercepted Will Howard at the 13 and returned it to the 2. Mullings scored from the 1 to make it 7-3.
Later in the second quarter, Howard on a keeper was leveled by Makari Paige at the Michigan 33 and had to leave the game for a play. Fielding missed a 38-yard field goal try and Dominic Zvada made a 54-yarder for the Wolverines to make it 10-3.
Ohio State got the tying score with 30 seconds left in the first half on a 10-yard catch by Jeremiah Smith.
