- The Buckeyes are in sixth place in the Big Ten standings at 4-4-1 (13 points). They can finish anywhere between sixth and ninth in the standings based on Sunday's outcomes.
- The simplest scenario, a win or a tie for the Buckeyes on Sunday secures them a Top 8 seed and a spot in the Big Ten Tournament. There are scenarios where they would get in with a loss, but we don't want to think about that.
- The all-time series between the two rival programs is close as Michigan holds a slim 15-13-6 advantage.
- Each of the last eight matches in the series have either ended in a tie or been decided by one goal.
- In last year's meeting, the two teams played to a scoreless draw in Ann Arbor on Sept. 22, 2022. The Buckeyes outshot Michigan 14-11 as keepers Katherine Robinson and Molly Pritchard combined to make five saves in the shutout.
