The Ohio State versus Michigan rivalry is know from the upper reaches of the northeast all the way to the furthest corners of the southwest. But for one Buckeye the big game was not a household thing while growing up on a different continent.

Placekicker Ryan Pretorius knows all about it now after being on five straight winners for Ohio State and picking up his fifth pair of gold pants for being a member of the victorious Buckeyes.

After the game we caught up with the Buckeye who had to travel the furthest to get to Columbus (Ohio) to see what the win means to him, about the mirror lake tradition and what happened during warmups at midfield in Ohio Stadium.
