A house divided in the Buckeyes-Wolverines rivalry

The Ohio State-Michigan rivalry is one of the greatest in college sports. A Buckeye and a Wolverine just don't mix. But in northwest Ohio, in an area where allegiances are mixed between Ann Arbor to the north and Columbus to the south, sits the Buckeye & Wolverines Shop, a store that sells both Ohio State and Michigan gear and memorabilia under one roof. It's been around since 1980 -- now in its third spot and third ownership -- but fans of both schools still get a kick out stopping by ... as long as they don't have to touch the "enemy" items.
