Oh that is just hysterical. Little brutus can rhyme dirty words!

I suppose I could come up with a dirty version of the Ohio State fight song, but nobody, including me, knows it.

Problem is that it's only played when you score points and since Ohio State has only scored 266 points this year (as compared to Michigan's 353 points) it really hasn't been played all that often.

actually the ight song is playe after any major offenswive and efensive play, before the game, halftime, an after the game, before carmen ohi ( in which the players sing the alma matre to the fans) after the game.

anyone who has attended a game in the hallowed groun of the horseshoe woul attest to this (and if y6ou aregue with this, youve never been there, as i haver been to michigan staium and it is a great place to wat6ch a ball game.)

The subject: NCAA Football

The question: Who has the better record in the Ohio State - Michigan
rivalry?

The answer: Neither. They are tied. The NCAA was formed in 1905. Since
1905, the Ohio State - Michigan series stands at 44-44-5.

In the category of NCAA football, the teams are also tied in National
Championships at seven each, since Fielding Yost's four titles (all shared)
came in 1901-1904. Before 1905 the field was 110 yds long and striped in a
checkerboard pattern, touchdowns were worth 5 points and field goals 4. A
team, after scoring a touchdown, retook possession of the ball on the
ensuing kickoff. So did the team that missed its attempt at a drop kick,
which was still a common play at the time. These rules made it considerably
easier for a team to keep possession of the ball away from their opponents,
running up the score and shutting out the opposition as Michigan did during
their '01-'04 run.

Use these facts to remind the Wolverines in your life, the next time they
boast of their dominance in the rivalry, that they truly are living in the
past.
