Players from Ohio have been at the heart of the Ohio State-Michigan game, but the number of Ohioans on both teams has declined.
Several reasons account for the decline in the number of Ohio players in The Game. The country’s demographic shift toward the South is one. There are relatively fewer players from the Midwest.
“That's just kind of where the game is going,” Ohio State tight end Cade Stover said. “With networking and social media, you can get your film out there more. I think are finding people in different places. With Ohio State being Ohio State, you can pull from just about anywhere in the country you want to pull from.”
“You felt it from the time you're in kindergarten all the way through,” Stover said. “, there wasn't one kid not wearing a jersey of what team they liked. I graduated with a couple of kids who were team up north fans. They'd be getting bombed all day long in school.
