At a point, my HS team had beaten the crosstown rival 10 out of 11 times. It was still a rivalry, but we always expected to win. It was always intense, but it was obvious that our fans expected to win and their fans just prayed for an upset.

I don't believe our program will even get to the next level until we start beating UM regularly enough to where it becomes less important to everyone. Only then can we can set our sights on bigger things.
