TIE BREAKER

What happens when college football's greatest rivalry isn't decided on the field? TIEBREAKER is the story of the 1973 Ohio State-Michigan football game, which ended in a 10-10 tie leaving Big Ten Athletic Directors to vote on which school would represent the Big Ten in the Rose Bowl and contend for a possible National Championship.

The film features rare archival footage and interviews with student-athletes, coaches and administrators who lived in the moment, capturing the thoughts and emotions of 12 key participants from each side of the ball 40 years later.
