The main two college teams in Michigan are the Michigan State University Spartans, and the University of Michigan Wolverines. There are, also, several smaller schools that have had some national acclaim in the world of sports, but these are the two that receive the most acclaim, and are the largest.

In the world of major professional sports, most of the sports teams in Michigan are tied to Detroit in some way as follows: Baseball, the Detroit Tigers; Basketball, the Detroit Pistons; Football, the Detroit Lions; NHL hockey, the Detroit Red Wings; Arena football, the Detroit Drive; WNBA, the Detroit Shock.
