Game program from the November 23, 1946 game between Ohio State and Michigan at Ohio Stadium.  Michigan pounded Ohio State, 58-7, under first year head coach Paul Bixler. The Buckeyes finished the season 4-3-2 and facing two top 10 opponents in the final two weeks of the season led to anxiety in Columbus and ultimately, Bixler's departure.  In February of 1947, Bixler resigned, citing high pressure associated with being Ohio State's head coach.

Program is complete and intact, there are staple holes at the top throughout. Soiling noticeable on the front and back cover.
