My first thought was that that t-shirt looked more like something you'd see on a somewhat reactionary OSU fan. I think we were supposed to like the people of Iraq, just not their dictator. Or just not their dictator once we no longer liked their dictator. Or whatever. I dont' think the people of Iraq or the country was the problem. In fact, you could argue that we LIKED their country. A lot. Or something that was in it.

hey ohio troll, either contribute like some of the other welcome ohio fans here do, or go back home.

  you aren't even a good troll, as you can't keep it in the fairway enough to hide your ohio-fandom.

Got a puncher’s chance next weekend. But you have to force turnovers. Probably can’t beat those guys straight up minus a Herculean effort from the defense. Especially the DL.

Never like the whole "Ohio" thing.......reminds me too much of Hoke and feels kind of cheesy as well.

My significant wish is that Don Brown figures out what OSU is doing before they go up 21 points. If so, we have a chance.

Personally, if I was Don, I’d ask the flying saucer aliens who live under the South Pole for assistance in that regard.

OSU is going to get their points. But I think our O is playing good enough that we can keep up with them, and get in a 2013 style shootout. Hopefully we can make enough plays to get the W this time!

I also share the sentiment shared in the title of this well thought-out thread. While the state of Ohio has a vibrant history and a litany of excellent qualities, including forced payment for the privilege of driving on their scenic highways overlooking vast swathes of barren wastelands, there are many aspects of the state that give us pause when considering the overall get-fuckedability of the region. First and foremost is the fact that while a fine university sporting a brave, combative mascot in SE Ohio pre-dates the younger school located in the pit of the aforementioned Ohio desert of semi-trucks and trash, the latter school insists on calling itself a state university with a definite article affixed to the beginning of their title. I'd posit that this ambitious school is simply An Ohio State University, and for their stubborn insistence on demanding more than their stature in the Ohio state education system warrants, I concur with the subject above, or more specifically: Fuck Ohio.

I give us a 29% chance next week.  Home game, senior Shea, Gattis, D Brown tending to get payback next year after thrashings.  OSU will still likely win the N.C. but we have a decent chance.
