ANN ARBOR – An intense, testy, emotion-filled series against your No. 1 rival couldn’t come at a better time for a pair of struggling Big Ten teams – Michigan State and Michigan.
This weekend, the Spartans and Wolverines can forget about disappointing records and the frustration building up over not scoring goals, allowing too many goals and not winning games.
The focus is on the rivalry – beating the team you enjoy defeating the most and claiming bragging rights – and hope it leads to confidence and perhaps a winning streak or something close to it.
