Michigan's fight song
in 1898, he must have

success of Michigan athletics. While
Lhe Wolverines were not the~
"whampions of the West" during the
1991-92 season, eight teams won
their conference championships.
Here's a look at those teams and
others. And remember to learn those
words before the football team's
home opener.
