That question was in the Plain Dealer not too long ago and the answer is no. There have been like 9 or 10 2 time season 1-2 matchups, but never 3 1-2 matchups.
What would be freaky ass shit is if Michigan somehow loses to OSU and remains #2 for the BCS bowl games. Possible but doubtful, OSU would have to be their only loss, USC would have to lose 2 (UCLA, Notre Dame), WVA (to Louisville, perhaps) and Rutgers would have to lose (to Pitt or WVa perhaps). Louisville would have to lose to Pitt or Syracuse.
Then you have a lot of the others that would have to lose another game, like Texas maybe..... Since ND's loss came from Michigan I don't see how they could get ranked over Michigan.....
A lot of if's and possibly's in there, but the chance does remain.
2 OSU wins over Michigan in one year.............
no Buckeye fan could ask for more.
