Michigan state and Michigan colleges both have this indescribable rivalry. This makes students from these colleges feel more hatred towards each other because of the schools they go too. Football, basketball, and every sport makes everyone feel uneasy during this time. For 60 years, Michigan State University and University of Michigan have fought for the honor of hosting the Paul Bunyan Trophy, which goes to whichever team wins the rivalry each year. The main reason of their rivalry is because Michigan voted against Michigan state being in the big ten conference in 1953 and 1955. This makes me think that this rivalry could be have been prevented if they voted yes.
