The Dead Schembechlers!!!
It's exactly what you think it is: an Ohio State punk band!

http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaaf/news?slug=dw-schembechlers111506&prov=yhoo&type=lgns

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – The Live Schembechler – who dresses, not surprisingly, like Bo Schembechler – was talking about the Dead Schembechlers – who dress like Woody Hayes.

This was even better than you'd imagine when a 77-year-old conservative college football legend tries to wrap his mind around a half-vulgar, completely punk rock band from Columbus, Ohio, named after his eternal demise. (sic
- should be "nemesis" -Ed.)

Bo probably doesn't want to know. The Dead Schembechlers are four guys from Ohio who perform outrageous anti-Michigan, pro-Buckeyes punk songs while dressed as the late Woody Hayes. Seriously.

While they only perform once per year – at Friday's "Anti-Michigan Rally" in Columbus – and make virtually no money (they all have side careers), they've become a cult favorite with "hits" such as "Bomb Ann Arbor Now," "Schembechler Kicked My Crippled Dog" and other absurdities.


Yowza! While I am generally neutral as concerns OSU-Michigan -- I have distant family ties to both states and have not set foot in either -- as a Dead Kennedys fan from back when, this is almost enough to make me want to run out there and dot the 'i'!
