There were plenty of Michigan fans upset with the outcome of "The Game" this year against Ohio State. Most of them felt that there were some badly missed calls and one spot for Ohio State that was wrongly given.

While those people would be right that calls were missed, it's not the one that happened on that Ohio State fourth down that gave the Buckeyes a first down conversion. The Big Ten is formally admitting mistakes that were made for the game on Nov. 26 and it comes from a Chicago Tribune interview with Bill Carollo, the Big Ten's football officials coordinator.
After an interview with Carollo, reporter Teddy Greenstein writes:
There was one egregious no-call, as bad a whiff as the officials had at any moment of this Big Ten season. On third-and-7 in the first quarter, Michigan's Amara Darboh got fouled twice on one play — defensive holding and pass interference — and neither penalty was called. What makes it worse is he was the intended receiver.
Another no-call that went against Michigan came after Jabrill Peppers' third-quarter interception. Just as Peppers was being tackled, Ohio State's Mike Weber decked Michigan cornerback Brandon Watson, who was standing nearby, not involved.
The whistle had not blown, so technically the no-call was valid. But Weber's action fit the definition of unnecessary roughness. It was a cheap shot, the kind of hit that could start a fight. Carollo downgraded the official who declined to throw the flag.
