On November 25, Michigan defeated Ohio State, 14–3, before a record crowd of 88,358 at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio State's Bob Atha kicked a field goal late in the first quarter for the Buckeyes' only score in the game. Michigan responded with a four-play, 70-yard drive that took only 59 seconds off the clock and ended with a 30-yard touchdown pass from Rick Leach to Rodney Feaster. Late in the second quarter, Ohio State drove to Michigan's 24-yard line when Jerry Meter knocked the ball out of Art Schlichter's hand, and Andy Cannavino recovered for Michigan. After the turnover, the Wolverines drove deep into Ohio State territory, and with seconds remaining in the first half, Leach completed a pass to Gene Johnson at the one-yard line, but Johnson was hit by Vince Skillings and fumbled and Skillings recovered the ball. The first half ended with Michigan leading, 7–3. Michigan's defense tightened in the second half, limiting the Buckeyes (ranked fifth nationally in scoring offense prior to the game) to only one first down. In the third quarter, Michigan drove 69 yards on 13 plays, capped by an 11-yard touchdown pass from Leach to Roosevelt Smith. With 3:15 remaining in the game, Mike Jolly intercepted Schlichter's pass near midfield as the Buckeyes tried to mount a comeback. Michigan's players carried coach Schembechler off the field after the game. Leach was selected by the ABC broadcast crew as the Chevrolet Offensive Player of the Game. Leach sustained a hamstring injury in the second quarter, but completed 11 of 21 passes for 166 yards and two touchdowns. The Wolverines out-gained the Buckeyes by 364 yards to 216. Roosevelt Smith led Michigan's backs with 67 rushing yards on 10 carries. Ohio State quarterback Art Schlichter completed only four of nine passes for 43 yards. Ron Springs led the Buckeyes' ground attack with 63 yards on 12 carries. In a post-game press conference, coach Schembechler called it "the greatest game we've ever won" and declared Leach to be "the best football player in the United States of America" and "the greatest football player I have ever been associated with." Woody Hayes, in his post-game press conference, became enraged when a columnist from the Chicago Tribune asked if he was aware that his teams had not scored a touchdown against Michigan in the last three games. Hayes approached the columnist in a menacing manner, screamed that he had "no respect" for the columnist, and stormed out of the briefing room.
