Did the Michigan loss help you win a national championship?

That's a great question. I think it definitely unlocked something inside of us that turned us loose. And I think the adversity that we went through in that game and after that game and what we had to kind of push through

it I don't want to say I don't know if it for sure helped us but you know it was it definitely gave us a spark man and it gave us um you know some something to really really cling to and really at that point all we all we had was each other and it was really the woody versus the world man like you know there's a lot of stuff going on outside I mean it must have been awful

it wasn't, it wasn't fun, man. You know, and you come to, you come to Ohio state to beat those guys. And, you know, for, for me, you know, it hurt. I got one chance at that game. You know, obviously I got knocked up in the first half and, you know, I wasn't, I probably wasn't a hundred percent, but shoot, like only, only God himself could have taken me out of that game.

Like you get one chance to play the team up North and, and, And it was just a bad day. It was just a bad day for us. And, you know, we can't have that. And, you know, as, as much as, yeah, it felt like the world was collapsing around us and, you know, it really felt like we were all we had at that moment. And I think that helped us because it was kind of a us versus the world kind of mentality.

And we came out there and we said, you know, we can make this thing right in previous years. you know, we'd be, we'd be out of this thing and we'd be sitting at home and not having any, anything to do, but, you know, sit, sit around and think about this game.

But this year, you know, we have, you know, God bless us with an opportunity to go out there and right the wrong and win a national championship. And, you know, I think, I don't know if it was the reason, but I think it definitely contributed to that spark that we, we needed, you know, going into the playoffs.

I guess I just try to think back, like, I never did anything that was as important to that many people as playing quarterback for Ohio State. And you are kind of adopted by this community, you know, and you can understand, you know, based on perception, like what that game means. And then, of course, you have Coach Day's recent run against them and everything that happens after the game.
