[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former UP-er here. I think the responses I'm seeing here don't match my experiences or those of my family/friends still in Michigan, either in the UP or down state. My/our perspective has always been to prefer State over Michigan, and when I'm home I see twice or triple as much green as blue. Granted that one school is larger but not so much larger that the color ratio is 2:1. I also think you're missing a nuance in your question. For most people in Michigan the comparisons are usually made as a triad - Michigan State v Michigan v Michigan Tech.[/quote] UP-er?!?![/quote] UP means someone from the upper peninsula of Michigan, where Michigan Tech is located. I’m from near Michigan State and my high school sent one or two at most to Michigan tech per year. It’s a good school but under the radar for many even in the state. [/quote] I know that. I always thought they identified themselves as “Yooper.” [/quote]
