Ryan Day and the Ohio State Buckeyes suffered yet another devastating loss to the Michigan Wolverines on Saturday afternoon, making it four consecutive losses against their biggest rival.

It was a 13-10 slugfest that ended with the Wolverines kicking a game-winning field goal with under a minute left on the clock. While fans were calling for Ryan Day to be fired after the game for his continued inability to beat Michigan, we also saw a massive brawl take place between players on the field as the Wolverines attempted to plant their flag on the Ohio State 'O' in the middle of the field.

We also saw a little bit of spicy trash talk from a former Michigan staffer who has a notorious place in this rivalry.

That Michigan staffer is Connor Stalions.

After being dismissed from the team in connection to the famous sign-stealing drama that took place in Ann Arbor a year ago, Stalions has been informed that he must stay away from this game against Ohio State.

However, he made sure to get his trash talk off afterwards on social media.

"Hi friends! They said I wasn’t allowed in Columbus this year . Just checking in on my buddy Ryan. Everything good???" Stallions wrote on X.

Everything was not good for Ryan, as it turns out.

While he has had great success in his career at Ohio State with a 66-10 overall record, the four consecutive losses to Michigan may be a fireable offense ultimately. The past three losses were explainable, as Michigan was in championship contention and near the top of the sport, but this year is tougher to swallow. Coming into this game, the Wolverines were 6-5, with no hopes of playing for anything more than a bowl game.

That, and trying to ruin the Buckeyes' season, which they effectively did.

Ohio State can still get an at-large bid in the College Football Playoff, but without an ability to win the Big Ten Championship Game, they will not be given a first-round bye.
