COLUMBUS, Ohio — Every day, Ohio State linebacker Cody Simon walks past the countdown in the Woody Hayes Athletic Center, a gentle reminder throughout the year of the matchup against Michigan and what’s to come in late November. That reminder is no longer very gentle.

OSU’s season low as 64 yards on 31 carries against Nebraska earlier in the year, while its run defense held Western Michigan to 28 yards. Michigan was held to just 69 yards against Indiana but the defense held Fresno State in Week 1 to nine yards rushing and held Northwestern to just 10 yards this past week.
