Ann Arbor – Finally, it’s back to the way it should be, the way it used to be, when a riveted nation tuned in every November to watch Michigan and Ohio State execute crisp 3-yard runs, then kick field goals to decide who got to lose in the Rose Bowl.
Finally, Michigan State had the decency to politely get the (bleep) out of the way and permit Ohio State-versus-Michigan to regain its rightful standing as the greatest rivalry in the free world, not counting Ohio State-versus-Libraries. It’s back and it’s epic, slightly updated from the Big Ten’s famed Big Two-Little Eight era.
