Reasons Why University of Michigan is Better than Ohio State
A great rivalry for sure. These programs may respect one another but the fans do not.
| 1. |
US News and World Report ranks University of Michigan the 4th best public university in the country. Ohio State is ranked 19th.
Now this is a non-biased report. Even Penn State and University of Florida beat Ohio State. Ouch.

A Wolverine versus a Buckeye
Who are you going to put your money on? Best I can tell, a buckeye is the nut for a buckeye tree--the official tree of Ohio. That may be the worst mascot in all of college sports.

Ann Arbor versus Columbus
Not even close. One is a hip college town, the other is a town whose best years happened a half century ago.

Numbers don't lie. Sure Tressel is 7-1, but Cooper let Michigan go 10-2-1 right before that. The whole country can see the tide is about to turn on Tressel. (Predicting this year to begin the swing back to Michigan dominance)

The Weather---Okay, it is terrible in both places
The weather in both Michigan and Ohio is ridiculous. It is hard to understand why people elect to live in either place voluntarily. The winters are brutal and the summers are not much better.
