In popular culture

In 2004, Michigan and Ohio State announced a deal with SBC Communications to sponsor their football game for the next two years for $1.06 million, to be split between the universities. The game would be dubbed the "SBC Michigan-Ohio State Classic" that year and the order of the school names would be switched the next. Advertisements were to be placed on billboards in Ohio Stadium, but not on the field or on player uniforms, nor anywhere in Michigan Stadium, where there is no commercial advertising. Fans and alumni of both schools were outraged and ultimately the deal was cancelled. The game remains unsponsored.

Ohio State: The Rivalry" focused on the rivalry, chiefly the "Ten-Year War" through the present. [ [http://www.hbo.com/events/rivalry/ Official HBO "Michigan Vs. Ohio State: The Rivalry" page] ]

In 2006, as part of their Midwest Midterm Midtacular, "The Daily Show" visited The Ohio State University and made fun of the rivalry on the final night by having correspondent Rob Riggle report while wearing a Michigan sweatshirt. This, of course, angered the entire OSU audience. After the sketch was over, Jon Stewart compared the rivalry to the disputes between Sunni and Shiite Muslims.cite video | people = Jon Stewart | title = [http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=120218&title=midwest-midterm-midtacular Midwest Midterm Midtacular - Goodbye, Columbus] | medium = TV-Series | publisher = Comedy Central | year2 = 2006]
