I'll work on some decent trivia from
past games (e-mail me if you've got
a good question to ask-- send me the answer and some "alternate" (wrong)
answers to put in the quiz, too).
-
I'll put up at least one or 2 video
clips-- I only have 11 MB of space, so I don't know how many I'll be
able to have up at once. I also provided a link to a great
page for videos-- it's all Michigan, however. OSU videos? Anyone?
-
More pictures, I'm working on. I have
a friend sending me an older book of OSU football.
-
Bo pictures? I don't think so. I don't
want this page rejected by "Net Nanny."
-
Michigan articles are not a high priority,
I guess. Just as well-- one article is enough typing, but 2?
-
Player stats: someone specifically
requested this one in an e-mail. It seems a pretty low priority for everyone
else, though.
-
I also had a request that I put the
year on the top of each game page, as well as a link to the game the year
before and the year after. Not a bad idea at all. I'll do that, too.
-
More ideas to improve the page?
(all together now) E-mail me!
Want to jump straight to a decade of games? Click
on the decade below. The numbers below are the series record during that
decade. Gray on scarlet is a decade which OSU won, maize on blue is a decade
won by Michigan. White on black indicates a tie.
Why is the OSU-Michigan rivalry the greatest?
I'm glad you asked...
A note about the philosophy
of this page.
OSU and UM Rose
Bowl histories.
OSU and UM Heisman
winners.
The OSU and UM fight
songs. Learn the words (The REAL words, not those heard in AA
and Columbus when the opponent plays its song...) and hear the songs. Close
your eyes and picture the stadium packed to the brim (or the halo, right
Michigan fans?) ;-) with screaming fans. Goosebump City.
Video
clips of past game action. Only a couple, due to the rather limited
size of this page.
Years when OSU and UM entered THE Game undefeated.
The sites
of THE Game: Ohio Stadium (even years) and Michigan Stadium (odd years).
Head
Coaches of both Ohio State and Michigan.
So just who the hell is this
kid and what does he know about this rivalry that I don't? (Hint: not
much)
This isn't related to the rivalry, but is definitely
worth
a look. Really amazing that a monkey could figure out not only how
to turn on a computer, but also how to make a webpage. E-mail this guy
and tell him what you think. This came to my attention when an SEC fan
tried to use it as "proof" of the Special Education Conference's "superiority."
You know-- records in bowl games were "proof" until the Big Ten kicked
their asses last year. Now suddenly, it's a flawed system of measuring
conference strength. Hmmm...
=
Ohio State Rose Bowl season
=
Michigan Rose Bowl season
= Michigan
or Ohio State Heisman Trophy winner. Complete list
here.
I'm working backwards from the present day to include
a page with stats, a game recap, and photos (when available) for every
game. Unfortunately, since there are no articles on-line for games before
1994, it's slow going, finding the articles and then typing them out.
If you're interested in this rivalry beyond the rather limited
scope of this site, and want a nice summary as well as stats and photos
from each and every game since 1897, you may want to go out and purchase
a book by Steve White, entitled "One Game Season: Ohio State vs. Michigan."
If you're in Columbus, try Long's Bookstore on the corner of 15th and High
St. I also saw it in the OSU campus bookstore (behind Dreese and Baker
Systems engineering, and just north of the power plant). If you're in Ann
Arbor, you're pretty much on your own. I couldn't say for sure, but you
could probably find it in one of the campus area bookstores. If you're
really desperate, contact the publisher at: One Game Season; PO Box 5633;
Collegeville, MN; 56321. It's a wonderful reference book. Please send
me as many photos of past games as you have. If you order from the
publisher, be sure to mention this site. Okay, enough with the commercials,
