If I am wrong here, I am sorry, I am not trying to put words in your mouth, but most of the time there's so much on the line for that game, bragging rights, the big10 championship and in the past 6 years a right to go to the national championship game has been there three times.
What gets more intense for a rivalry than that? You say Michigan isn't a real rival, but remember, before Tressel we went 2-10-1 with John Cooper, trust me this game means a lot.
