As further proof of the foolishness of the Buckeye side of this rivalry, I saw a song title from the Dead Schembechlers in the Dispatch last night called "Bomb Ann Arbor Now". I'm sure it will fly to #1 in Columbus.

need to get yourself some XM for this time of the year

Bo Schembechler passed away this morning of a severe heart attack. Channel 7 in Detroit is reporting this. Sad news.

ESPN is reporting he only collapsed.

It's true -- it's been reported he passed on several news outlets in the area including channel 13 in Toledo.

I wonder how they feel about their band name now.

I would note that the UM rep at the press conference did mention his time at BGSU as an assistant coach. More than what the local stations down here have.

He was one of the "All Time" great coaches, on a very short list of names that transcend the sport. You might hate Michigan, but you have to respect the man.

Truly the most perfect time to die, which assumes that UM loses the game. The timing will become part of the legend.

What is annoying the OSU fans down here, is the fact that instantly the story-line is "Bo is Dead." It elevated the game story into orbit, as if Saturday weren't already being billed as what could be the game of the century.
