"Michigan's Kris Jenkins Critiques Ohio State's Cotton Bowl Debacle as Ryan Day Faces QB Dilemma and Fan Ire"
Michigan defensive tackle Kris Jenkins expressed sympathy for Ohio State's football team after their poor offensive performance in a 14-3 loss to Missouri in the Cotton Bowl. Ohio State struggled following injuries and player transfers, including the loss of their starting quarterback and key receivers. Despite being a self-proclaimed "Grade A hater" of Ohio State, Jenkins found it difficult to watch the Buckeyes' collapse, stating that beating a strong rival is more satisfying than seeing them weakened. Jenkins' comments came as Michigan prepared to face Alabama in the College Football Playoff semifinal.
