For three hours, it doesn't matter where you come from or where you're going. If you are dressed in blue, you belong. And it feels good . Football is as much a part of college as late-night pizzas and road trips and keg parties. Football is what you will remember in the years to come, when you and your friends sit around talking about painting your faces for the Notre Dame or Ohio State game instead of studying.
Football is a memory-making machine.
We obviously felt that way in September, when we denounced the Athletic Department for providing some students with split-season ticket packages. The regents likely were to approve yesterday the expansion of Michigan Stadium by 5,000 seats to make sure that doesn't happen again. But now, a few of us don't seem to care. The only way to change that is to make sure that those who are attending today's game make up for those who aren't. The administration is providing pom-pons to wave, and everyone is bringing a voice box.
