Ohio State Buckeyes fans start young. You could even say that, from the day they are born, OSU fans are bred to eat, sleep and breathe Buckeyes football.

And LeBron James has joined the fight to make sure the Buckeyes have as many fans as possible rooting for them on Saturday when they take on Michigan in "The Game."

All babies born at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center on Friday and Saturday will receive a free pair of black and red Nike LeBron Soldier 10s.

James is a proud native of Akron, Ohio, and he's known for showing his support for all Ohio sports teams.

Ohio State hosts Michigan on Saturday at noon. To date, the rivals have battled it out 111 times, with Ohio State winning 12 of the past 15 matchups.
