The contest is one of several holiday events announced for the Bend Area town. Others include the annual parade, a visit with Santa, and the New Haven Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary Christmas Craft Show.

According to Recorder Roberta Hysell, the judging for the outside decorations will take place the evening of Thursday, Dec. 17, but anyone wishing to participate must sign up at town hall by Dec. 15. Cash prizes will be awarded to ﬁrst-, second-, and third-place winners in two categories — traditional and most creative. All other Christmas activities will take place on Saturday, Dec. 5. Hysell said the annual parade will begin at 11 a.m., with line-up at 10:30 a.m. at the community center off Layne Street. The parade will travel to the former NAPA building, and those interested in participating are asked to call the town hall. Leading the parade this year will be quarter horses owned by Amy Carr.

It transports me back to my childhood Christmas faster than my stepmother dashes to a Black Friday sale. Suddenly, I’m propped up on my elbows on grandma’s living room ﬂoor, the green shag carpet itching my forearms as I pluck tinsel from the tree and wonder when I’m going to get to lick the bowl of batter from the cake grandma’s baking. Soon grandma’s announcing dinner’s ready, and I’m ringing the monkeyshaped brass bell, the vibration from it making me feel powerful as I summon the entire household to the table. I cherish the memories that clink in with Silver Bells. Michele Z. The song, Michelle My Bell, by the Marcum Beatles, however, makes me cringe Contributing — especially on the last verse, “I will Columnist say the only words I know that you’ll understand, my Michelle.” It offends me to think that a girl by any name couldn’t decide for herself if she loved the guy without him “dumbing” it down for her. Sometimes a random person serenades me with a verse of the song, and I just smile, humming softly to ﬁlter the lyrics from my mind. The person means well, but their rendition resonates a yucky feeling in my gut, not happiness. It doesn’t serve me. Grandpa rang the church bells every Sunday. He’d remove his suit jacket and grip his calloused hands around the rope to the belfry, tugging until the vibrations echoed throughout town announcing that the service would begin in ﬁve minutes. Grandpa enjoyed his duty. It served him. My head has its own bell that alerts me when a situation doesn’t serve me. Often the situation is my state of mind — my own negative thoughts that tell me I can’t do something like stand one moment longer in warrior pose at yoga or edit one more page of a writing assignment. Hearing the ding of my own bell startles me into recognizing the self-defeating thought. I ﬁnd it comforting to acknowledge the “I can’t” thought didn’t serve me and watch it drift away as a balloon on a windy day. Other times, it’s another person’s criticisms, their words like ﬁre, send smoke to my brain and set off my interior alarm and yet, again I ﬁnd myself releasing balloons full of hurt or anger. As I’ve practiced listening to my bell, I’ve attuned myself to heed its warning and learned to prepare the launch of letting go of what doesn’t serve me. This practice of letting go has served me well. I’m not sure if an angel really gets its wings every time a bell rings, but since, as John Donne says, the bell tolls for me as much as it does for any man who dies, then I want to ring my own bell — to identify my own reality-creating thoughts now while I’m alive and able to do so. When I’m dead, someone else can ring it for me. Michele Zirkle Marcum is a native of Meigs County and an author. Her column appears each Tuesday.

Ex-Ohio Speaker eyeing old seat By Julie Carr Smyth Associated Press COLUMBUS — Larry Householder, a oncepowerful former speaker of the Ohio House, is eyeing a return to the Statehouse. The 56-year-old Republican left Columbus a decade ago while he and several top advisers were under federal investigation for alleged money laundering and irregular campaign practices. The government later closed the case without ﬁling charges. With that now in his past, Householder is considering a run next year for the House seat that includes his Perry County home. He told The Associated Press in an interview Monday that the bid is still in “the exploratory phase,” but he plans to make a ﬁnal decision by the Dec. 16 deadline. “Honestly, I just have some unﬁnished business involving the district, and that’s what I’m interested in,” Householder said. “And it’s just something I love. It’s in my blood.” Top Republicans around the capital who have spoken with Householder are divided over his return. Supporters say Householder’s policy and political gifts would beneﬁt the GOP caucus. Detractors recall an era of heavy-handed tactics by Householder aides that many don’t relish repeating. State Sen. Bill Seitz, a Cincinnati Republican who plans a return to the House next session, said the House accomplished a lot during Householder’s speakership from 2001 to 2004 and the cloud under which he departed has lifted. “I’m sure there are those who think this is a horrible idea, but I would remind everybody that Larry Householder was scrutinized by every federal and state tax, regulatory and ethics agency known to man and was never charged or convicted of a damn thing,” Seitz said. “So I think he has gone through the purifying ﬁre and been found to be blameless.” Householder would join a group of seasoned Republican lawmakers making return runs for the House next year, including Seitz, Senate President Keith Faber and Sens. Jim Hughes of Columbus and Tom Patton of Cleveland. That inﬂux of seasoned Householder-era politicians poses a potential political challenge for 34-year-old Speaker Cliff Rosenberger, who joined the House in 2011 and took the chamber’s helm just this year. Householder said he’s met with Rosenberger and told him he doesn’t want to be speaker, but instead cares about solving policy problems — particularly water and economic development challenges still facing his district and Ohio. Still, some are skeptical that Householder isn’t aiming higher. Detractors are quietly working to thwart his return to the 72nd District as the seat’s vacated by Rep. Bill Hayes.

Jackson supposedly had another woman watch the girl and take her out of his apartment when he was checked by monitoring ofﬁcials, federal authorities said. He was taken off monitoring and ﬂed Ohio without the girl after pleading guilty last summer to a charge of interference with custody in a previous abduction case, in which two females alleged he held them against their will at a hotel. Other charges in that case were dismissed. Jackson was arrested in October in Utah. The girl returned to her family. �LOCAL/STATE Daily Sentinel Tuesday, December 1, 2015 3 MEIGS INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL HONOR ROLL GRADE 3: Kadence Allen, Abigail Barber, Brady Barnett, Tessa Bentz, Mily Braley, Dominic Bryan, Kane (Lee) Bundy, Mina Burleson, Hunter Clary, Hannah Crane, Rowen Daniels, Evan B.

Andy Dalton threw three touchdown passes — two of them to A.J. Green — and Cincinnati dominated in a 31-7 win over the St. Louis Rams on Sunday that left the Bengals feeling like old times. “I felt like we played well in all phases of the game,” Dalton said. “It’s good to get a win, and it’s good to get a win the way we did.” The Bengals (9-2) had lost Frank Victores | AP their last two games — both Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton (14) runs the ball in the second half of an NFL in prime time, both in the football game against the St. Louis Rams, Sunday, Nov. 29, 2015, in Cincinnati. closing minute. On Sunday, a team that aspires to get one of the top seeds for the playoffs got back to playing like it’s worthy of the postseason. “Every game from here on out is like the playoffs and means a lot to this team,” said safety Reggie Nelson, who had one of Cincinnati’s three interceptions. The Rams (4-7) fell apart at the end of a trying week and dropped their fourth straight. Receiver Stedman Bailey was shot in Florida on Tuesday and remains hospitalized. Kicker Greg Zuerlein strained a hip muscle on Friday and was replaced by Zach Hocker, who didn’t get to practice with the team. And Case Keenum wasn’t cleared to play after suffering a concussion a week earlier, prompting the Rams to go with the demoted Nick Foles. He ﬂoated a pass that Leon Hall intercepted and returned for a touchdown in the third quarter, making it a blowout. “Everyone is feeling emotional right now,” said Foles, who was 30 of 46 for 228 yards. “I’m feeling emotional right now. It’s tough.” Five takeaways from Paul Brown Stadium: See BENGALS | 10 Buckeyes beat Michigan, but lose spot Okla. up to No. 3, Clemson, Bama still 1-2 By Ralph D. Russo Associated Press Oklahoma moved up to No. 3 behind Clemson and Alabama and the Big Ten placed three teams in the top six of the new Associated Press college football poll. Clemson is No. 1 for the fourth straight week and Alabama is No. 2. The Tigers received 53 ﬁrst-place votes and the Crimson Tide got the other eight from the media panel. The Sooners jumped two spots to after winning the Big 12 title with a 58-23 victory at Oklahoma State on Saturday night. Three Big Ten teams followed with Iowa at No. 4, Michigan State No. 5 and Ohio State No. 6. Stanford moved up six spots to No. 7 after beating Notre Dame with a last-second ﬁeld goal and the Fighting Irish dropped from fourth to ninth. POLL POINTS Oklahoma has its best AP ranking since the 2011 season, but this one is far more satisfying for the Sooners. In ‘11, Oklahoma was preseason No. 1 and steadily slipped as the season went along. The Sooners were No. 3 in October, dropped as far as No. 19 in the poll after the conclusion of the regular season and ﬁnished 16th. This season Oklahoma started 19th, moved up a bit before losing to Texas in October and slipping back to 19th and has steadily climbed since.

(AP) — Ohio State crushed its rival and cruised home, crossing the border and hoping for the best. The eighth-ranked Buckeyes had beaten No. 12 Michigan 42-13. They just needed a little bit of help from Penn State later in the day to get another chance to advance to the Big Ten championship and keep their playoff chances alive. They didn’t get it. Michigan State may have ended the national champions’ quest to repeat by beating the Nittany Lions 55-16 and earning a spot in next week’s title game against Iowa. “Our season kind of rests on their shoulders right now,” Ezekiel Elliott said before he or his teammates knew their fate. Ohio State’s loss to Michigan State last week took destiny out of its hands because the sixthranked Spartans would win a head-to-head tiebreaker. Ohio State fans at the Big House knew they needed help, and in the second half began chanting: “Go Penn State! Go Penn State!” The Buckeyes’ season isn’t over, but they have a much tougher road to a playoff spot without an appearance in the conference title game. The selection committee protocol emphasizes conference championships and Ohio State can’t win one. Ohio State (11-1, 7-1 Big Ten, No. 8 CFP) needs to root for some major upsets, and even then, would have to hope that the committee is feeling generous. The Buckeyes did all they could to make their case against Michigan. Elliott ran through, around and past the Wolverines’ defense for 214 yards rushing and two touchdowns a week after running his mouth. He was held to 12 carries for 33 yards rushing against Michigan State, then publicly criticized the team’s play calling and declared he will skip his senior season to enter the NFL draft. “I regret everything I said,” Elliott insisted before being asked a question in a postgame news conference.

The Hawkeyes will get the best one Saturday — likely with a trip to the playoffs on the line. No. 4 Iowa (12-0, 8-0 Big Ten) and No. 5 Michigan State (11-1, 7-1) will face off in Indianapolis in the biggest game these programs have ever played against each other. The Hawkeyes sealed their spot in the title matchup with a game to spare. The Spartansa clinched the East with a 55-16 drubbing of Penn State this weekend. “This was our ﬁrst goal, to get to this game,” Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said Sunday in a teleconference. Iowa ﬁnished its regular season unbeaten for the ﬁrst time since 1922. Though the Hawkeyes didn’t play the toughest of schedules, they beat the likes of Pitt, Wisconsin and Northwestern to put coach Kirk Ferentz in position for his fourth conference coach of the year award. LOS ANGELES (AP) — After 20 years in a Lakers uniform and a lifetime in basketball, Kobe Bryant determined that his aching body and his passion for the game had both grown weaker than his excitement about the future. That’s when Kobe decided he could only wait a few more months to begin his life after the Lakers. Bryant announced Sunday that he will retire after this season, ending a landmark 20-year NBA career spent entirely with Los Angeles. He was serenaded with cheers throughout the struggling Lakers’ 107-103 loss to Indiana, beginning his farewell tour through the league with a clear mind and a burgeoning curiosity about his next chapter. “I had to just accept the fact that I don’t want to do this anymore, and I’m OK with that,” the dryeyed, smiling Bryant said after the game. The 37-year-old Bryant made the long-anticipated declaration in a post on The Players’ Tribune on Sunday, writing a poem titled “Dear Basketball.” “My heart can take the pounding. My mind can handle the grind. But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye,” wrote Bryant, the third-leading scorer in NBA history. “And that’s OK. I’m ready to let you go. I want you to know now. So we both can savor every moment we have left together. The good and the bad. We have given each other all that we have.” When the Lakers hosted the Indiana Pacers on Sunday night, fans expecting an unremarkable regularseason game for the struggling home team instead received a letter from Bryant in a black envelope embossed with gold. “What you’ve done for me is far greater than anything I’ve done for you,” Bryant wrote. “I knew that Michigan State wasn’t far behind. The Spartans only lost on the road at Nebraska 39-38 thanks in part to a questionable call at the end of the game. Recent wins at Ohio State and against the Nittany Lions have made Michigan State a slight favorite. Here are some of things to look for as Iowa and Michigan State renew acquaintances. THE COMMITTEE IS WATCHING: The winner of Saturday’s game is all but guaranteed a shot at the four-team playoff, especially after Notre Dame lost to Stanford and dropped out of the running. If Clemson or Alabama lose this weekend, the Big Ten’s hold on a playoff spot will only tighten. “I just can’t imagine whoever wins this ball game not being in the playoffs,” Ferentz said. “But no matter what happens, it won’t diminish what both teams have accomplished.” A win could even put the Hawkeyes into a rematch with Oklahoma and Bob Stoops, a star for the Hawkeyes in the early 80s. each minute of each game I wore purple and gold.” The theatricality of Bryant’s announcement ﬁt a dramatic career that has included ﬁve championship rings and 17 All-Star selections during two decades with the Lakers, giving him the longest tenure with one team in NBA history. Bryant went straight from high school in suburban Philadelphia to his favorite childhood team in 1996. He became the top scorer in Lakers history with offensive creativity and resourceful athleticism that inspired the generation of fans and players who missed Michael Jordan’s peak, but grew up on the dynamic exploits of the Lakers’ latest superstar. “Kobe was my Jordan,” said Southern California native Paul George, who scored 39 points for Indiana to beat the Lakers after Bryant missed a late 3-pointer to tie it. “Watching him win championships when I was growing up, that’s who I idolized. That was the standard.” But Bryant’s last three seasons have ended early due to injuries, and he played in only 41 games over the previous two years. He has struggled mightily in the ﬁrst 16 games of this season with mostly young teammates on a rebuilding roster, making a career-worst 32 percent of his shots and dealing with pain and exhaustion every day. Yet to Bryant, the current state of his game is no tragedy. “There’s so much beauty in the pain of this thing,” Bryant said. “It sounds really weird to say that, but I appreciate the really, really tough times as much as I appreciate the great times. It’s important to go through that progression, because I think that’s where you really learn about the self.” In recent months, Bryant repeat- edly said he didn’t know whether he would play another season, clearly hoping for a rebound in his health and the Lakers’ fortunes. Neither has happened, and the ever-impatient Bryant didn’t wait any longer to decide his future. “Kobe Bryant is one of the greatest players in the history of our game,” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said. “Whether competing in the Finals or hoisting jump shots after midnight in an empty gym, Kobe has an unconditional love for the game.” In a ritual likely to be repeated in arenas for the next 4 1/2 months, Bryant warmed up for Sunday’s game amid even more than the usual swarm of camera phones and ﬂashes surrounding the court. Bryant then missed his ﬁrst six shots, including three 3-pointers. His slump stretched to 2 for 17 before he hit two big shots late, including a last-minute 3-pointer before his ﬁnal miss. Bryant surprised Lakers coach Byron Scott with his decision Saturday night. Scott, Bryant’s teammate during the 1996-97 season, thought the star “had at least another year” in him. Bryant disagreed, and he decided to make it public after talking with Jordan and other “muses.” “If I had a burning desire to continue to play, I would,” Bryant said. “I wouldn’t be second-guessing. I wouldn’t be on the fence. I feel very solid in my decision.” Even during his late-career struggles with the foundering Lakers, Bryant’s fans have remained devoted to the 6-foot-6 star who won titles alongside Shaquille O’Neal in 2000, 2001 and 2002 before teaming with Pau Gasol for two more in 2009 and 2010. Only 13 players in league history played on more championship teams than Bryant.

(AP) — Shakir Brown posted career highs as he scored 25 points and collected 14 rebounds in James Madison’s 89-75 win over Marshall Friday night. It was Brown’s third double-double in seven games for James Madison (4-3) this season. He was joined in the double-double category by teammate Yohanny Dalembert who also registered career bests of 23 points and 15 boards. It was Dalembert’s ﬁrst doubledouble of the season. It’s the ﬁrst time JMU has had a pair of double-doubles in one game since Denzel Bowles and Rayshawn Goins in a 2011 loss to Hofstra. The Dukes had ﬁrst-half leads of 13-3, 37-19 and 46-23 at the half. Marshall (0-3) used an 18-3 run to cut the deﬁcit to 12, but the Thundering Herd could never cut it to a single-digit deﬁcit. Winston Grays III tied his season high with 12 points and Ron Curry added 10 points. C.J. Burks ﬁnished with 17 points for Marshall. WKU overwhelms Marshall in 49-28 win BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) — Brandon Doughty threw for 370 yards, including ﬁve touchdowns, as Western Kentucky routed Marshall 49-28 to win the East Division of Conference USA on Friday. The Hilltoppers (10-2, 8-0) earned the right to host the conference championship game on Dec. 5 against the winner of Saturday’s game between Southern Miss and Louisiana Tech to determine the West Division champion. Doughty also became the ﬁrst quarterback in Division I history to have consecutive seasons with more than 4,000 yards passing and 40 touchdown throws. Doughty completed 27 of his 39 passes against the Thundering Herd (9-3, 6-2). He has 42 touchdown passes for 4,214 yards this season. The Hilltoppers needed just three plays and 44 seconds to ﬁnd the end zone in the opening series. Nicholas Norris hauled in Doughty’s pass on a short inside route and turned it into a 35-yard catch and run for the game’s ﬁrst touchdown.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — After advancing to the championship game of the Las Vegas Invitational with a semiﬁnal win over Richmond on Thanksgiving night, one would think West Virginia would be elated. But after reviewing ﬁlm the morning of the title game, the Mountaineers held a “heart-toheart meeting,” to discuss the focus and intent for the remainder of the season. The chat worked. Daxter Miles, Jr. scored 14 points Friday night, as West Virginia dominated San Diego State 72-50 to claim the championship. The Mountaineers’ physical game proved to be too much for the Aztecs, who suffered their worst loss of the season. “We’ve always felt we were a special team, but it don’t mean nothing if we don’t put the work in,” Miles said. “I believe we have some good guys and we can’t do it without each other. One game it’ll be one player getting hot, another game it will be someone else. And coach always reminds us it can be any one of us with the hot hand.” West Virginia (6-0) outrebounded the Aztecs 42-28, as tourney MVP Devin Williams dominated the paint. The Mountaineers put themselves in position to score more often than San Diego State, with a 14-3 edge in offensive rebounds. The Mountaineers outscored the Aztecs 30-7 in points off of turnovers. Jevon Carter, who had 12 points in the title game, joined Miles and Williams on the alltournament team. Williams had 10 points and nine rebounds. “We just want to compete, we just wanted to come out and play as hard as we can play,” coach Bob Huggins said. “I knew we could compete. We’ve got great guys who are extremely competitive. We played better as a team today than we had in the prior ﬁve games.” After six games, Huggins’ troops are outscoring the opposition by an average ﬁnal of 88.6-58.1. The 30.5 scoring margin ranks ﬁfth in the nation. The Mountaineers — which just played four games in eight days, two in Morgantown and two in Las Vegas — will now enjoy a sevenday layoff before returning the court. After receiving votes in last week’s poll, West Virginia could creep into next week’s Top 25. Williams said until the Mountaineers are a top ﬁve team, however, the rankings don’t mean a thing. “That’s not really much of a discussion; being in the Top 25, that’s good because it means those are 25 teams playing hard and being elite, but at the end of the day, if we’re not top ﬁve it isn’t affecting me,” Williams said. “Tonight everybody was for each other and that’s the most important thing.” Williams leads the nation in double-doubles with ﬁve and has 22 for his career. He said as a leader he is trying to help his team get on the same track as last year, when it made it to the NCAA Tournament, but was hammered by Kentucky 78-39 in the Sweet 16. “We kind of got a little complacent, a little happy about making the Sweet 16 (last year),” said Williams, who leads the team with 17.5 points per game. “This is just Bengals games.

TIP INS West Virginia: This marks the second straight year the Mountaineers opened the season 6-0, as they started last season 7-0 before a one-point loss to LSU … The Mountaineers improved to 116-29 against nonconference foes in regular-season play spanning the last 12 seasons … West Virginia has made at least one 3-pointer in 529 consecutive games … The Mountaineers were 21-0 last season when holding opponents to 69 points or less and are 5-0 this season. San Diego State: Though they lost, the Aztecs are still on a 22-9 run in games played in Las Vegas, including road games played at UNLV… With the setback, San Diego State is now 30-8 in the month of November since the 2010-11 season. less in four of the last ﬁve games. “It opened some eyes when we lost two in a row,” safety George Iloka said. NEXT RAMS QB: Coach Jeff Fisher said after the game that Keenum will start against the Cardinals next week if he’s cleared to play. One of Foles’ interceptions was tipped; the other two were ﬂoated. The worst was a throw on the run that went right to Hall for a 19-yard interception return for a touchdown. “It’s one of those things where I was trying to make too big of a play in that situation,” Foles said. CAN’T RUN: With the passing game doing so little, opponents are gearing up to stop Todd Gurley and the Rams’ Buckeyes From Page 6 ADD HIGH-SPEED INTERNET the start and we need to keep winning. We need to take it game by game and stay focused.” San Diego State (4-3) knocked off No. 14 California in the semiﬁnals on Thursday, overcoming a 15-point deﬁcit against the Bears, but couldn’t ﬁnd the same magic on Friday. The Aztecs shot just 34.2 percent (13 of 38) from the ﬂoor, including a dismal 0 for 9 from behind the 3-point line. After combining for 30 points in Thursday’s win, San Diego State’s heroes — Skylar Spencer and Winston Shepard — managed just ﬁve points against the Mountaineers. Shepard was held scoreless for the fourth time in the six games he’s played in this season. Jeremy Hemsley led San Diego State with 14 points. Ohio State has won 11 of the last 12 games in what has become a lopsided series with Michigan. The Wolverines (9-3, 6-2, No. 10 CFP) simply could not stop their rivals from running at will. “The biggest thing is they were getting tired and they weren’t getting lined up,” Elliott said. Elliott, who has 3,812 yards rushing in his career, passed Eddie George for No. 2 on the school’s all-time rushing list and trails only two-time Heisman Trophy winner Archie Grifﬁn. Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said Elliott should at least be at the ceremony honoring college football’s most outstanding player. “I think he should be in New York,” Meyer said. “I think he is one of the best players in America. I don’t know if he should win. I don’t know the other players, but I am fortunate to be around him. He’s one of best players that I’ve ever been around.” Elliott had a 5-yard run that put Ohio State up 14-3 in the second quarter and a 10-yard run put the Buckeyes ahead 35-13 early in the fourth. “We couldn’t make tackles, especially on No. 15,” Michigan defensive tackle Chris Wormley said. “A guy like that takes more than one person to tackle him.” Barrett started the scoring barrage with a 7-yard run late in the ﬁrst quarter. His 13-yard run late in the third quarter gave the Buckeyes an 18-point cushion and his 17-yard run midway through the fourth made mercifully ended the scoring for Michigan. running game. He managed only 19 yards on nine carries Sunday, ﬁnding little room behind St. Louis’ injury-depleted line. The Rams’ biggest play came when Gurley took the snap in a wildcat formation and handed off to Tavon Austin, who ran 60 yards. REMEMBERING BAILEY: Austin and Kenny Britt wore Bailey’s jersey number in practice last week. Austin led the Rams in rushing with 63 yards on four carries and had six catches for 33 yards. Players worried about Bailey during the week, and the lopsided loss was just another disappointment. “We wanted to go out there and play for him,” Foles said. “That’s what hurts.” He ran more than he passed. Barrett was nine of 15 for 113 yards, including a 25-yard TD pass to Jalin Marshall that capped the ﬁrst drive of the second half to give Ohio State a 21-10 lead. Michigan trailed the entire game and pulled within four points twice in the ﬁrst half. When the game was out of reach in the fourth quarter, Wolverines quarterback Jake Rudock was sacked and slammed onto his left shoulder and left the game. Rudock was injured by former high school teammate Joey Bosa and was replaced by Wilton Speight. Rudock and Bosa played together at St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Rudock was 19 of 32 for 263 yards and a TD. Unlike Ohio State, the Wolverines struggled to move the ball on the ground. Three-way player Jabrill Peppers had 29 yards rushing on seven carries and No. 1 running back De’Veon Smith had 10 carries for just 23 yards. While Jim Harbaugh has generated a lot of hype this year for coming back to lead Michigan, were he was the starting quarterback two decades ago, he has to improve a program that is 0-4 against Meyer. “I’m very proud of the team the way they’ve worked and the way they’ve progressed,” Harbaugh said. “We’ve closed a lot of ground. More ground to make up, but knowing our team, we will keep working hard.” This just wasn’t the year for Michigan to gain an edge in The Game. During the ﬁnal minutes, red-clad fans were easy to see in the emptying stadium and could be heard shouting, “OH-IO! OH-IO!” toward the end of another blowout. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
