"HBO out did themselves with this program! No matter if you are a die hard Michigan or Ohio State fan, you will appreciate the rich history and humor this program offers. For those of us who knew Bo and Woody, it will bring a few tears to your eyes too. An excellent compilation of the rivalry between two of America's greatest college teams ever!"
AWESOME

"I have watched several "Ohio State - Michigan Rivalry" DVDs....and this is far and away the best one. HBO really did thier homework, produced it superbly, and captured the emotion and devotion of athletes, coaches and fans involved in this rivalry."

"Love this video! Saw this on HBO last year the night before the OSU - Michigan game. I had never been to an OSU game before, but after I watched this video, I have now been to 5 games since, the last one being the OSU - Michigan game a few weeks ago! I love the comradery of the Buckeye fans as there is nothing like it anywhere else. And it was so much better being at the game than watching it on TV, even thought it was freezing cold at the game! And it's all because of the rivalry between these 2 teams! The Buckeye fans are the best fans in the USA! GO BUCKS!"

"There's a lot of history here that even us grads didn't know. The video is well done and provides a fair assessment to both sides."
