After having previously said that he doesn't hate Ohio State or Ryan Day, Whittingham was on the defensive again on Monday as fall camp rolled on in Ann Arbor. You do need that extra edge in a rivalry game as fierce as "The Game." On the recruiting trail, "The Game" rivalry is a battle for all the top recruits in the region. Utah is a talent-rich state, but the Buckeye State and Wolverine State often offer elite prospects. Downplaying hating Ohio State and then beating them with a smile on his face could make Whittingham look like a demon, quite frankly.
