Back in 2001, Michigan and Michigan State met at Spartan Stadium for an outdoor game dubbed the “Cold War.” It drew the largest crowd ever for an ice hockey game of 74,554 and was the inspiration for the Heritage Classic and the Winter Classic. These two teams are going back outdoors next season as they will face off at Michigan Stadium in the “Cold War II.”
