16. 1987 Michigan
When Coach Earle Bruce was fired just five days before the Michigan game, the stage was set for one of Ohio State’s most emotional and controversial games ever.

The players came out on a mission to win one for their embattled leader, but that didn’t stop Michigan from taking the early 13-0 lead. But the Buckeyes responded with a barrage of their own, going up 20-13.

Michigan came back to tie the game at 20, but a late-game field goal gave the Buckeyes the upset victory and Coach Bruce a measure of vindication.
