The School Up North — Woody Hayes’ euphemism for the University of Michigan. Buckeye lore suggests Woody could not bring himself to say the name of that state, thus TSUN. Also there is similar usage of TTUN by Buckeye fans, The Team Up North. Rather childish, but it is part of the rivalry which is about the only excitement the BIG 14 football has going for it anymore.
