Schemebechler played football for Hayes at Miami (Ohio) and spent seven seasons as an assistant coach under Hayes at Ohio State. While Schembechler brought Michigan football back to national prominence, his biggest contribution may have been intensifying one of sports' greatest rivalries. in 1969, his first year at Michigan, Schembechler ended the regular season THE TEN-YEAR WAR, with a stunning 24-12 upset of Hayes's top- ranked Buckeyes, who were considered one of the best teams in college football history. That game vaulted the rivalry into legendary status. Coupled with the next nine games, the vicious battles between the "Big Two" of the Big Ten would later be called the Ten-Year War. Those ten games gave a new identity to an already storied rivalry. Without the epic clashes between two coaching Goliaths, today's matchup wouldn't mean nearly as much to millions of Buckeye and Wolverine fans. - By Andy Reid 2005 *Offered Honorary Degree from the University of Michigan Nov. 17,2006 * Passes away on the eve of what some say will be the greatest game in the history of rivalry he created Page compiled by Katie Niemeyer, Andy Reid and Ian Robinson.
