Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Presented in a unique reversible-book format, this is the ultimate Ohio State University fan guide to the passionate and historic rivalry between the University of Michigan Wolverines and the Buckeyes. Full of interesting trivia, hilarious history, and inside scoops, the book relates the fantastic stories of legendary Buckeyes coaches and star players, as well as the numerous villains who have represented the maize and blue over the years. Like two books in one, this completely biased account of the rivalry proclaims the irrefutable reasons to cheer the Ohio State Buckeyes and boo the Michigan Wolverines and shows that there really is no fine line between love and hate.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
