ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The Game is set up to be a gem .No. 2 Ohio State (10-1, 7-1 Big Ten, No. 2 CFP) hosts rival and third-ranked Michigan (10-1, 7-1, No. 3 CFP) on Saturday with a lot on the line , and it could join a long list of memorable games in the storied series.Heres a look back, in chronological order, at some of the top games in one of the greatest rivalries in sports, according to AP Sports Writer Larry Lage.Lages first memory of The Game was in 1981 when Art Schlichter lifted the unranked Buckeyes to a 14-9 win over seventh-ranked Michigan with a touchdown near his fathers seats in Section 19. Lages first game story as a journalist covering the series came in 1995 when Tim Biakabutuka ran for 313 yards to help No. 18 Michigan beat No. 2 Ohio State 31-23. Lage has covered one Michigan road game in the series, a decade ago, and all the matchups at The Big House since 2001. The 43-year-old Lage played football across the street from Michigan Stadium at Ann Arbor Pioneer High School and one of his teammates was Mike Lantry, whose father was a central figure in The Games 10-10 tie in 1973.1950In what is remembered as the Snow Bowl, the unranked Wolverines beat No. 8 Ohio State 9-3 as the temperature hovered around 10 degrees with winds reaching nearly 30 mph and the white stuff making it tough to see or play. Ohio State fired coach Wes Fesler with an 0-3-1 record against the Wolverines. The Buckeyes ended up hiring Woody Hayes, a young coach from Miami (Ohio), to take his place.1969In Bo Schembechlers first game against Hayes , his mentor, No. 12 Michigan beat the top-ranked Buckeyes 24-12 at home. Hayes lamented the loss, saying the Schembechler-led Wolverines beat the best team he ever had. The game was the start of what became known as the Ten Year War, with Bo beating Woody five times, losing four games and finishing one famously tied.1973No. 1 Ohio State and No. 4 Michigan, both undefeated, battled in an instant classic to a 10-10 tie with enough drama to be the subject of a documentary, Tiebreaker . The Wolverines got the better of play, but kicker Mike Lantry missed two field goals in the last 2 minutes. Big Ten athletic directors chose the Buckeyes, not Michigan -- perhaps because quarterback Dennis Franklin got injured to represent the Big Ten in the Rose Bowl at a time when the conference would only allow one team to be in a bowl. The Big Ten would later decide to allow more than one school to participate in the postseason.1987Ohio State fired coach Earle Bruce just days before The Game after a three-game losing streak dropped his team to 5-4-1. The unranked Buckeyes, wearing white headbands with Bruces name written on them, beat the unranked Wolverines 23-20 to drop them to 7-4. Bruce was 81-26-1 overall, including 5-4 against Michigan, but Ohio State let him go and brought John Cooper to campus in a move many Buckeyes would lament because he went 2-10-1 in The Game.1991The Game wasnt close that year as No. 4 Michigan routed No. 18 Ohio State 31-3, but it produced a favorite memory for fans north of the state line and a nightmare for those to the south. Desmond Howard, who hailed from Ohio, returned a punt 93 yards for a touchdown and famously struck a pose from the Heisman Trophy statue he later won.1997Like Howard, Charles Woodson crossed the border from Ohio to play for the Wolverines and ended up winning a Heisman Trophy in part because of a signature moment in The Game. Woodson returned a punt 78 yards for a score, sprinting up the same sideline -- Ohio States -- and into the same end zone that Howard did to help No. 1 Michigan beat No. 4 Ohio State 20-14 en route to a national championship.2002Maurice Clarett, playing in The Game for the only time, helped No. 2 Ohio State get past the 12th-ranked Wolverines 14-9 on the way to a national championship. On the final play, Will Allen sealed the victory for the Buckeyes by intercepting John Navarres pass just in front of the goal line. It was one of many victories in the rivalry for Ohio State coach Jim Tressel , who was 9-1 against the Wolverines before resigning in 2011 amid NCAA violations from a tattoo-parlor scandal.2003In the 100th game in the series, No. 5 Michigan beat No. 4 Ohio State 35-21 at the end of a dominant run that seems like a distant memory. The Wolverines were 18-9-1 from 1976-2003 under Schembechler, Gary Moeller and Lloyd Carr. Since Carr retired, Rich Rodriguez (0-3), Brady Hoke (1-3) and Jim Harbaugh (0-1) have combined to go 1-7 against the Buckeyes . Michigan leads 58-48-6 in part because college footballs winningest program started 13-0-2 in a series that dates to 1897.2006A day after Schembechler died, The Game featured the top-ranked teams in the country. No. 1 Ohio State beat No. 2 Michigan 42-39, building a 28-14 halftime lead and holding off the Wolverines after they pulled within four points twice in the second half. Ohio State pushed its lead back to 11 with 5:38 remaining in an entertaining contest that wasnt quite as close as the final score.2013No. 3 Ohio State held off the unranked Wolverines 42-41 when Tyvis Powell intercepted Devin Gardners 2-point conversion pass with 32 seconds left after Hoke, an Ohioan, chose to go for the win instead of taking his chances in overtime. Hoke disliked Ohio State so much he wouldnt say State when mentioning the school and couldnt recall wearing red.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25---Follow Larry Lage on Twitter at www.twitter.com/larrylage Pete Maravich Jazz Jersey . The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruling "puts an end to my dreams of being a top player," the 27-year-old Troicki said in a statement. "I worked my entire life for it, and it has been taken away from me in one afternoon by a doctor I didnt know," said Troicki, whose ranking peaked at No. Jeff Hornacek Jersey .

After the whistle, Thornton skated the length of the ice, pulled Orpik to the ice from behind and punched him in the face several times. Donovan Mitchell Jersey . -- Linebacker Myles Jack ran for four touchdowns, defensive end Cassius Marsh caught a scoring pass, and No. Karl Malone Jazz Jersey . -- Stanfords Kevin Danser knelt on one knee and hardly moved on the sideline as Michigan State celebrated its Rose Bowl victory and his Cardinal teammates made their way to the locker room. STANFORD, Calif. -- Stanford tight end Dalton Schultz saw Christian McCaffrey run the football earlier than most. Their high school teams played twice, and Schultz said he and his teammates were helpless to stop McCaffrey.Our entire defensive game plan was structured around him. He tore our defense up, Schultz said. I remember one play he broke like six tackles and went 99 yards.Stanford fans hope to see something memorable Saturday when the Cardinal (8-3) face Rice (3-8) in what could be McCaffreys final home game. When asked this week if he expects to enter the 2017 NFL draft, the junior running back said only: Im just focused on Rice right now, bringing the juice and sending the seniors out the right way.Cardinal coach David Shaw said the two plan to discuss the matter after Stanfords bowl game.Whatever McCaffrey decides wont be soon enough to help Rice. The Owls have won their past two games, but coach David Bailiff knows a serious challenge awaits at Stanford Stadium.We better tackle well this week. Hes an amazing back. Weve all seen him on TV, Bailiff said. Hes not just an amazing back. He catches the ball well. Everything he does hes incredible at. Kick returns, punt returns; he can do it all.McCaffrey, the 2015 Heisman Trophy runner-up after rushing for more than 2,000 yards and setting an FBS record for all-purpose yards, is coming off a 284-yard performance against rival Cal. He has rushed for 807 yards the past four games.Schultz said blocking for McCaffrey is much more fun than trying to tackle him. He particularly enjoyed McCaffreys 90-yard TD run against Cal during which he eluded three would-be tacklers at the line of scrimmage.Just knowing if you stay on that block an extra half a second something goods going to come out of it, Schultz said. You dont have to be perfect, he gives you a little leeway.Things to watch for when Stanford faces Rice:LASTING MOTIVATIONShaw said Stanfords early-season stumbles continue to provide fuel and should motivate the Cardinal even as a heavy favorite against Rice.Hopefully we have that feeling of still trying to make up for lost time, said Shaw, whose team has won its past four games after a 4-3 start. The real opponent for us is making sure we play better this week than we did last week.ddddddddddddRICE DEFENSE RISES UPBailiff is hoping for a repeat of the Owls defensive efforts the past two weeks, when they allowed just 21 and 24 points in wins over Charlotte and UTEP. He was especially excited that Rice held Miners running back Aaron Jones to 75 rushing yards after hed topped 200 each of his two previous games.Defensively, I think it was the finest defensive performance that Ive seen maybe since Ive been here, he said. We only had four missed tackles on the day so we tackled exceptionally well.TOUGH AT HOMENot much tilts in Rices direction in this one. Stanford is 10-0 in non-conference home games under Shaw and has won 15 straight games at home outside the Pac-12 dating to a 2007 loss to Notre Dame. Then theres this: After struggling on offense for much of the season, the Cardinal have found their groove. With junior Keller Chryst now playing quarterback and McCaffrey fully healthy, Stanford has totaled more than 500 yards of offense in three straight games for the first time since 2011.TYNERS TURNRice freshman quarterback Jackson Tyner, who had thrown just five passes all season before starting last week, now faces one of the nations most physical defenses. Tyner was thrust into action when starter Tyler Stehling went down with a knee injury. Tyner responded by going 18 for 25 for 196 yards with two touchdowns and an interception against UTEP.Jackson Tyner stepped in and did an incredible job, Bailiff said. It was a great, great effort by him. He had an interception, but he made wise decisions with the football.WHY THIS GAME ON THIS DATEStanford customarily faces Notre Dame in the final regular-season game in odd-numbered years, but that leaves the Cardinal with scheduling issues in the even-numbered years. The contract between the schools called for the game to be played in Week 2, but Rice agreed to move it to the end of the schedule so Stanford wouldnt finish a week earlier than everyone else. The move also created an early bye that prevented the Cardinal from having to play 12 consecutive weeks. ' ' '
