OSU will never escape our vast network of spies
I'm not up on military planes, so I never would have caught this without someone pointing it out. Apparently the plane that did the flyover on Saturday is a Navy spy plane. No Stalions? Then the US Navy will take care of recording Ohio State's signs for us.

I’m an 89 year old guy living near Portland Oregon in a retirement community, and must confess I am one of the vast network of spies. There is a 94 year old woman living down the hall who by mental telepathy gets the osu signals in real time which I then send on to Jim’s headset. And yes I’m an old Marine. Marines, are mostly, part of the vast network, except for the 10% who never get the word…they are osu fans.

The official story from the athletic department, no doubt:

Last Thursday, I had trouble escaping a vast network of pies.

I have a framed poster from the MSU night game where the helicopters flew over that he took as well. This will be a great addition.
Introducing, "BET 1001"!
This rival game shot of U of M vs. Ohio State (taken on 11-25-23) was one of the most anticipated games of the year. Both teams were 11-0 going into The Game, with a chance to get into the Big Ten Championship game and a spot in the College Football Playoff. With an amazing ending to this game, the Wolverines won 30-24, which makes it 3 wins in a row over the Buckeyes. This is win number 1001, which means "MI" in Roman Numerals.
What another incredible experience flying over 111,000 people at the biggest game of the year. I was honored to fly over the @usnavy and their Boeing P-8 Poseidon. I was able to speak with the pilots of this 737 a few days ago to coordinate their flyover details and everything went so smoothly.
Thanks for your support and Go Blue!

The P-8 Poseidon is an anti-submarine warfare aircraft, which is ironic since OSU was underwater most of the game.
I don't even know what that means.

Didn't know the blue wall extended to the navy. Should've known better.

What an amazing troll job! Accuse us of stealing signs, ok for The Game flyover we will have a Navy spy plane. That was amazing!

One of my hobbies (besides being a Michigan Football fan) is monitoring the radio communications for the games and the flyovers.
The flyover schedule for all the home games are made and posted a month or two before the season starts. You can find them listed in the U of M Football promotions website here: https://app.mgoblue.com/FootballPromotions
They remove the specific game promotions after each game, so the only one showing at the time I am making this reply is Ohio State.
I've seen some of these twitter posts eluding that Michigan was trolling because it was the Navy P-8 Poseidon, but I hate to burst their bubble, the P-8 was scheduled way before the sign stealing allegations stuff came to light.
GO BLUE!
BTW, the P-8 was using the callsign LEGEND621
