The Ohio State Buckeyes may have had a disappointing end to their 2023 college football season, but they have responded with an extremely strong offseason, bringing in some high-profile transfer players, making some changes on the coaching staff, and returning several key players who could have decided to vault to the NFL. But it does not sound like Michigan Wolverines head coach Sherrone Moore is too worried about the Buckeyes heading into next season.
During a recent Michigan Wolverines men’s basketball game, Sherrone Moore joined the broadcast for a brief interview. During that interview, Fox commentator Gus Johnson asked Moore for his thoughts on Ohio State’s strong offseason, and Moore had a pretty blunt message as he called out Ohio State a little bit.
“We’ll settle all of that in November,” Moore said, according to Michigan Wolverines beat writer Zach Shaw of The Michigan Insider.

Obviously, this comment from Moore attracted a lot of attention on social media as people offered their reactions to his words.
I don’t care if Michigan goes 1-11, as long as that 1 win is beating osu. 〽️ https://t.co/gRJcx6Otds

Moore has already beaten Ohio State once as a head coach, filling in for Jim Harbaugh during his suspension last year. We’ll have to see if he can do it again this upcoming season.
