Students across Ann Arbor and Ohio are excitedly gearing up for a rivalry basketball game that sources confirm will be “happening.”

The University of Michigan and Ohio State University are excitingly preparing to duel on the court in a game that will be watched by dozens of people all across a few scattered houses in the respective college towns.

When asked, Ann Arbor resident Tyler DePfeifer excitedly recounted Michigan’s last two victories against OSU, before cocking his head and saying “oh” when he found out it was the basketball game.

“Yeah, I’m really looking forward to February 5th, some friends and I are going to Louisville for the weekend, it’ll be a lot of fun,” said OSU student Viktor Byrd, seemingly unaware of the game at all.

Students at both schools are preparing for the time-honored tradition of doing homework and catching up on unread emails that will have piled up by then, ignorant of the game that is easily accessible on ESPN 4.

Players from both teams were reportedly upset when reminded of the game, many of them canceling a trip to Disney World they’d scheduled for then.
