This is Channel 7's Big Ten Ticket with Don Shane and Bo Schembechler.

This afternoon in Ann Arbor, Michigan and Michigan State will play a football game for the 99th time against each other.

These two teams are going in opposite directions.

Mark, you're right.

This is not the old Big Ten, and it's definitely not Woody Hayes versus Bo Schembechler, grinded-out offenses.

Both these two offenses are averaging about 40 points a game.

Penn State, they do a lot.

Greg Campy wants to beat Michigan so bad on Monday, but he does have a a deep down love for the University of Michigan.

Why? Well, his father played on the 1947 National Championship team for Fritz Kreisler, and his brother also played for Bo Schembechler and was a Big Ten champion.

So we're going to dive into that question with Greg Campy.

So we're going to talk to Greg and get his game keys and some of the most important things that we can look for in that game.

And he's a Michigan guy.

And all the Mallory boys played for Bo Schembechler.

There were like four of them.

And I asked Doug to tell me his favorite Bo story.

So here it is.

So Bo used to have a yardstick.

Bo Schembechler, the coach at Michigan for years, used to have a yardstick, and he'd walk up and down behind the offensive line during practice, measure their splits, whatever.

He didn't tolerate mistakes.

Good afternoon, everyone, and Happy New Year from Pasadena, California, the home of collegiate football's greatest extravaganza, the Rose Bowl, matching the Big Ten champion Michigan Wolverines against the Pacific Eight champion Stanford Indians.

This is Don Kline with Don Kramer and our NBC radio producer, Hal Ashby, on the scene here at the site of the granddaddy of all the New Year's Day Bowl games, where John Ralston's Indians are about to face Bo Schembechler's Wolverines in the 58th renewal of this great tradition of the intercollegiate sports scene.

As Stanford and Michigan square off against each other here this afternoon, this is indeed another milestone in Rose Bowl history dating back to 1902, for it was on this day 70 years ago that the first Rose Bowl game was played.

a contest that matched these two universities, Michigan and Stanford, in the first bowl game ever played.

Randy Poteau came up from the strong safety spot and stopped Taylor.

Short of a first down by about a yard and a half.

So now the question from the bench from Bo Schembechler.

Will the Wolverines go to their kicking specialist, Dana Coyne, who has won the last two games for the Wolverines over Purdue and Ohio State with those field goals by which they beat the Boilermakers 2017.

Sometimes the players and coaches hate each other too, depending on what the circumstances are, what the relationships are like.

But everyone found out years after the fact that Bo Schembechler and Woody Hayes were friends.

They were... head coaches in the fiercest rivalry in all of college football everyone assumed that they hated each other's guts turns out they were like pen pals and

because as far as i could translate they weren't friends during the 10 years they played became friends later they hated each other and the only thing they said to each other all year long was at the 50 yard line before the game hi woody hi beau after the game a handshake they don't say anything But Woody was Bo's coach.

And also, you're inside it.

You're going through the same thing.

Like, it makes sense that Bo Schembechler and Woody Hayes would be friends.

Or OJ and Glo or whoever.

The answer is this.

In 1975 season, so the 1976 bowl game, the University of Oklahoma beat Michigan and head coach Bo Schembechler.

1985 season, 1986 Orange Bowl.

They knock off Joe Paterno and Penn State.
