Michigan to shut down football program if they lose to KSU. Will officially become hockey school.

seems like that would be going overboard - they have a decent tradition + there's not any money in D1 hockey programs.  but i trust your post.

No, but we're in the middle of super disappointing football/basketball seasons and MSU/OSU are both in BCS games and ranked in the top 5 in BBall.

Nothing would surprise me at this point.

This gets me extra pumped for the game.  Is it supposed to get me pumped?  It does.

Some Michigan fans were tweeting at the Governor of Michigan about it.  Maybe it is true?  :dunno:
