Ohio State and Michigan Football Sweep Monday with Surprising Congratulatory Surge—What’s Behind the Unexpected Praise?

The Athletic named on Monday the Ohio State vs. Michigan rivalry as the No. 1 rivalry in the country.

According to the reporter, it was an “easy” choice.

“Arguably, Michigan-Ohio State football is the greatest rivalry in American sports. It unquestionably holds that status in college athletics. Their co-dependence deepens the intensity, both in victory and in defeat. There’s history from the territorial conflict over Toledo in 1835-36 that led to Ohioans referring to Michiganders as “Wolverines.” There’s proximity, prominence, moments, stakes, frequency and longevity. There is nothing like it,” The Athletic wrote.
