Linda Brinker spent Saturday sitting in the cold of her downtown gift shop, Occasionally, while furnace issues were resolved.

It was somewhat ironic, considering that Brinker — as well as all of Ohio and Michigan — is now around one of the hottest college football games in years.

Extras

On Saturday, Ohio State and Michigan will play at Ohio Stadium in arguably the most anticipated meeting of this storied rivalry, as both teams are 11-0 and ranked Nos. 1 and 2 nationally. The winner advances to the national championship game with an outright Big Ten Conference title.

Occasionally is already out of "Michigan turns me on, Ohio State turns me off" light-switch covers, and Brinker has placed an order for Wolverines Big Ten championship T-shirts, just in case.

"This year," she said, "it just seems like more."
