Ok,
Let's hear about your favorite rivalries,
Michigan/Ohio State
Alabama/Auburn
USC/UCLA




A Michigan grad picks up an OSU grad on the way to the game. The OSU grad naturally wants to sit in the pick up’s bed. On one of those treacherous rural roads around Columbus, the driver of the pickup truck had to swerve to avoid either a cow or an OSU cheerleader (they're hard to tell apart) and wound up driving off the road, down an embankment and into a river. The truck submerged completely, but the Michigan alumnus knew what to do; he rolled down the window, took a deep breath as the truck cab filled with water, then opened his door when the pressure was equalized and rose to the surface.
Sadly, the OSU graduate was unable to get the pickup's tailgate open, so he drowned.


There was a tragic accident at the OSU Student Union Hall yesterday, the electricity went out and 50 students were trapped on the escalator for three hours.

How can you tell if a married couple roots for Ohio State? There is tobacco juice running down both sides of the truck.


A Michigan student and a OSU student have a head-on collision. Miraculously, neither is hurt.
They climb out of their respective vehicles and trade information. Upon hearing the other driver is a OSU student, the Michigan student says, "I believe this wreck is signifying that we need to put aside our differences and become friends."
The OSUU student agrees, and the Michigan student looks into his car. "Well, what do ya know! Here's a full bottle of Jack Daniel's that isn't broken at all. I think we should each drink to our newfound friendship. In fact, I'll let you have the first drink."
The OSU student is surprised, but quickly agrees and swallows several large gulps.
He then offers the bottle to the Michigan student, who says, "No thanks. I'll just wait for the cops to arrive."



Two football players on the OSU Buckeyes were out hunting. As they walked up a small hill, the downhill hunter tripped on his untied shoelace and his gun went off. The bullet struck his hunting companion in the head and he fell to the ground. The shooter was beside himself but remembered that he had his cell phone with him and called 911. The following was his conversation with the dispatcher.
Dispatcher: What is the problem?
Buckeye: (sobbing uncontrollably) I ... I think I just killed my friend!
Dispatcher: Just stay calm and don't jump to any quick conclusions. First, you need to make sure that your friend really is dead.
Buckeye: OK. Wait a minute.
Shortly thereafter the dispatcher hears a gunshot over the phone and then hunter is back on the line.
Buckeye: OK, now what?

An old farmer wants his son to go to Michigan State, but the son's IQ is too high. Since the farmer really wants his son to be an Spartan he takes him to the MSU Vet School and asks to use an IQ-reducing machine. Although the machine is experimental and not meant for humans, they decide the risk acceptable. They strap the son into the machine and turn it on. His IQ starts dropping. 130...110...100...90...80...70...60... When the scientist flips the OFF switch, nothing happens. The son's IQ keeps dropping. 40...30...10..0!!!!. The scientist finally pulls the plug and stops the machine. The farmer runs to his son and shakes him awake, "Son, say something!" Dazed, the son looks him right in the eye and says,
"GO BUCKS!"

Well, being a Trojan alum, all I can say is F UCLA!! Bruins suck!

rjzeller

Okay, methinks B6 knew ahead of time that there was a Buckeye lurking about this board. Damn him!

You know, I really had a high opinion of you until that post, cw!

Really, though ... I don't think there's a better rivalry in college sports than OSU/Michigan. You can say Auburn/'Bama, or UCLA/USC, or FSU/Florida ... but none of them hold a torch in my view. Auburn/'Bama comes close, but it's just not the same.

See...one thing about OSU/Michigan -- they respect each other. Yeah, we let the jokes fly, and we come up with some pretty stupid bets for "The Game", but when it's all said and done, these two teams to respect each other.

That is, until the Buckeyes clobber M*CH*G*N this year....

Solar Bell

I agree, MICHIGAN/Ohio State is the best rivalry, hands down. Woody and Bo really put it on the map! Yes we joke and bait each other, but OHIO STATE is a very good program.
Of course, you must remember that Michigan does have the all time wins record and highest winning percentage of any major school in the USA.
And yes from Dr. Revelli and on... the best band in the country also!!!
BTW, you DO know that U of M's band was the first to perform the famous "Script Ohio" don't you?

GO BLUE!!!

OOOH...you suck, B6!! M*ch*g*n has been playing football since the crusaders were using pig farts to blow down castle walls. Who did they play then?

Nah...I'll give you that one. They got the edge on OSU, too. But I don't count the first 30 years...OSU had some pretty weak programs in their infancy. We didn't really start becoming a dominant program until Paul Brown came to town...

From 1919 until 1988 it was dead even...then the dreaded John Cooper came to town, sigh.

But no more. Jimmy T is here to even the score!

No, they didn't perform THE Script Ohio first. THey DID do their own version of "Ohio" on the field in script, 1932, but it was not the venerable "Script Ohio" as it has been perfomed since it's inception by TBDBITL. Similar, but not the same.

Okay, you asked for it....

Two University of Michigan fans were walking down the street when they came upon a dog lying on the sidewalk licking and cleaning his groin like dogs do. The first University of Michigan fan says to the second, "Boy, I wish I could do that." The second University of Michigan fan replies, "Yeah, me too. But I wouldn't try it." The first University of Michigan fan asks, "Why not?" The second University of Michigan fan replies, "Because I'm afraid the dog might bite me."


General Schwarzkopf was walking through the desert during the Gulf War when he found a lamp on the ground. He picked it up, rubbed, and out came a genie. The genie said to the General, "I will grant you one wish." The General replied, "I wish that we will win this war. Here is a map of the desert and all the war parties. Please make us win the war." The genie responded, "I'm not that powerful of a genie. I cannot grant you that wish." "Well," the General responds, "then can you have University of Michigan win a bowl game this year?" After a moment, the genie says, "Let me see that map again."

To the tune of "Across The Field".....

Liquidate Ohio State and turn the Buckeyes blue
They raise a lot of cattle in Columbus, it smells just like a zoo.
Knock them off their ivory towers
Send them crawling back to the showers
Down with Ohio State--It's a no nothing party school.

They say the girls who go to OSU are husband hunting dames
They like the jocks who get the football headlines, not the boys with brains
At Ohio you're way ahead--with straight A's in physical ed
Down with Ohio State--it's no nothing party school.

Move your butts for Tressy!
Bust your guts for Tressy!

Liquidate Ohio State and turn the Buckeyes blue
They raise a lot of cattle in Columbus, it smells just like a zoo.
Knock them off their ivory towers
Send them crying back to the showers
Down with Ohio State--it's a no nothing party schoo--oo-ool!

Okay, I was going to leave the fight song off becuase the lyrics are so bad, but here we go (typically sung at the horshoe during the Game every time that band plays that godforsaken tune):

Hail to the Mother ****ers,
Hail to the Big **** ****ers,
Hail Hail to Michigan the cesspoll of the West,
Hail to the Fornicators,
Hail to the Masterbaters
Hail Hail to Michigan the cesspoll of the West,

But when I think about it, the real lyrics really aren't all that great, either:

Hail! To the victors, valiant,
Hail! To the conqu'ring heroes
Hail! Hail! To Michigan the leaders and best
Hail! To the victors, valiant,
Hail! To the conqu'ring heroes
Hail! Hail! To Michigan the champions of the West!

...I mean, really, have they looked a map lately? And can't you come up with more than three lines repeated. But that's them folks from up north...always stuck in the past.

ROGERIO

To think they got all those thousands of dollars from you AND this kind of loyalty to boot... wow

BigBadWolf

The only thing I know is: Who the National Champion is! Number One baby!

Fight On!
