Amid the allegations that Michigan football employed a “spy” in an attempt to decipher and steal opposing teams’ signals ahead of future matchups, college football fans on social media had a field day with a lone Wolverines fan attending the Big Ten showdown between No. 3 Ohio State and No. 7 Penn State.

It is rather odd to see a fan, dressed in a Michigan jacket, at a game that featured two of the Wolverines’ biggest rivals.

Adding fuel to the fire on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, is that No. 2 Michigan has matchups against both Ohio State and Penn State in November.

While many were likely joking, numerous users posted that the fan was a “spy” for the team, supported by another image showing Ohio State players hiding the coaching boards on the sidelines.

Ohio State leads Penn State in an ugly defensive battle, 13–6, late in the fourth quarter.
