The last time was 1993 when Michigan won, 28-0, in Ann Arbor.
Michigan has shutout Ohio State 27 times with 21 of those shutouts coming before 1950.
Ohio State has shutout Michigan 10 times, the last being in 1962.
Michigan is well set up to be a national title continder this year, even without Edwards. The Big Ten will probably be the best conference this year in my opinion and the only things stopping Michigan from a trip to the Rose Bowl are playing AT Iowa and against Ohio state. The good thing is, Michigan plays both Notre Dame and Ohio State at home. Don't exclude Michigan State either unless Michigan really improved their vonerability against running quarterbacks. Here is a list of Michigan's schedule for 2006: (teams that are bold are at Michigan) NORTHERN ILLINOIS NOTRE DAME EASTERN MICHIGAN at Wisconsin at Michigan State MINNESOTA PENN STATE at Iowa at Northwestern INDIANA OHIO STATE I think Michigan will go 10-1 losing only to Iowa. The Big Ten could easily end up in a 3-way tie between Michigan, Iowa, and Ohio state. (Iowa plays Ohio State at Ohio State)
The 1973 Michigan-Ohio State game was played November 24 in Ann Arbor. The game wound up in a 10-10 tie.
Currently Ohio State, who has a 5 year winning streak over Michigan, and the current rosters project that Ohio State may extend their streak another two or three games on the skill of the time. All-time Michigan leads, 57-42-6, their first meeting was in 1897, and they started meeting every year in 1901.

1965 (Alabama) and 1966 (Notre Dame) they spilt the national championship and in 1962 they won it outright.
Michigan is undefeated this year, and will likely go undefeated until they meet Ohio State. They aren't winning big, but they are winning.
