*LANSING, Mich.* – Ahead of the Michigan Wolverine’s rivalry game against the Ohio State Buckeyes, Governor Gretchen Whitmer has placed a friendly wager with Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. 

  

“I can’t wait to watch the Michigan Wolverines beat the Ohio State Buckeyes for the fourth year in a row alongside thousands of college football fans across the nation,” said *Governor Whitmer*. “I’m confident our Wolverines are going to come out on top on Saturday, and I’m happy to wager Governor DeWine some amazing Michigan-shaped gummies.
