Monday, November 21



The Michigan/Ohio State game looms this Saturday at noon.  My Wolverines are 57-44-6 against the Buckeyes, however not having beaten them since 2003’s 100th anniversary game in Ann Arbor.

I first watched the game in the early 1970s before even attending Michigan while living nearby in Dearborn Heights.  Back then Bo Schembechler was in the midst of the great ten year rivalry with Woody Hayes, his mentor,  which became known as the “10-Year War” (1969-1978).  They were tight games often won or lost on a made or missed field goal.  Bo and Michigan went 5-4-1.  Classic.
