Ohio State won a National Championship. Ohio State went on a great four-game run to end their season to win them a National Championship. Ohio State did lose to Michigan before both of those things happened, but does it really matter in the end when the Buckeyes win it all?
Of course, losing to The Team Up North is never fun, and no Ohio State fan likes seeing it happen, but in the end, the Buckeyes come out on top even with the loss because they are National Champions. Obviously, the players, like Jeremiah Smith, hate losing to TTUN, and Smith even made the bold claim that he won't allow Ohio State to lose the next two years to Michigan, and one Wolverine had an interesting response to that claim.
"All I can say to that is see y'all in November," Michigan EDGE rusher Derrick Moore said in a Big Ten Media Days interview. "If that's how he feels, that's how he feels - but when November comes around and it's time to play, we're gonna see."

Of course, The Game is always the biggest matchup of the season for Ohio State and Michigan, no matter how good or bad the teams are doing. However, it is not like Michigan can keep this win streak going on forever; at some point, Ohio State is going to get back in the win column, and it probably will happen this season.
This take from Moore is not going to age very well when Ohio State goes up to Michigan this season and beats them on their own turf. A flag plant may not be the only celebration that Ohio State does when that happens.
The Buckeyes have all the tools again this season to go and win it all again. This team isn't coming in like the defending National Champions; they are coming in as the attacking National Champions, ready to go do everything again.
