Find out how the two states nearly came to war over a border dispute.

Every November, Ohio State University and University of Michigan football fans anticipate the Big Game when the two schools face off and renew their rivalry. However, the roots of this rivalry may extend back to the early 1800s when the two states nearly came to war over a border dispute. Please join us on August 1 as Carl Quatraro presents the story of The Toledo War.
