The Michigan Wolverines are using Orwellian tactics in an attempt to get their next opponent shaking ahead of Saturday’s matchup.

Michigan students currently occupying Markley Hall decided to get together and give the middle finger to Ohio State, as the Wolverines prepare for a tough game against the Buckeyes. Using the lights in their dorm rooms, students managed to spell out the phrase “Fuck OSU.” It’s not the classiest of sentiments, but you can’t knock the students’ creativity.

Michigan and Ohio State’s rivalry has spanned more than a century. The games have featured many iconic games, including the “Snow Bowl,” 2011’s “Game of the Century,” and plenty of memorable moments and plays.

Saturday’s game has plenty of playoff implications, as Urban Meyer and Jim Harbaugh’s teams both sit at 10-1. A victory would clearly separate the winning team from their opponent. Right now, the Wolverines are ranked third in the country, while OSU sits ahead at No. 2.

The game is going to be a fun one. Seeing fans get involved is always fun, even when the messages are NSFW. Whoever wins is going to have ultimate bragging rights and the ability to spell whatever they want in dorm room lights.
