Rooting for MSU or OSU?

I get it, I hate both teams and universities with every bone in my body and wish both could somehow lose, but that isn’t an option. So, which team will you be hoping wins Saturday night? I personally will be hoping for an OSU blowout, I love seeing Sharty lose and RCMB implode.

Hey, guys. I know this is completely off the wall, but I was actually looking for some help. I’m an Ohio State fan, and before you delete this or write me off, just hear me out. Last year, my buddy (who is a huge Michigan fan) and I went to The Game last year in Columbus. For the most part it was a good trip. However, he experienced some comments and actions by Ohio State fans that I myself didn’t appreciate. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy some good smack talk and bashing as much as the next guy, however what he experienced that day was so bad we actual left the game early to go get some drinks and wind down. Getting into it with “fellow OSU fans” (I don’t actual consider them fans, just assholes) even ruined the game for me. So, here is where I am hoping you guys can help. 

I bought tickets for us this year to go to Ann Arbor and see The Game. I would really like him to have a great experience to make up for last year. If there is anybody willing to let us tailgate with them before the game I would greatly appreciate it. Last year was a mess and literally nobody would let us join them because he was a Michigan fan and I was associated with him. 

I understand this should be a post itself, but I don’t have the 100 points so I thought I would try here.

Thanks for any help.

Rooting for MSU. Win or lose OSU is surely the better team overall. Losing will mean they must have some weaknesses though. And if Michigan is good and has a shot at a division title, it's still probably through OSU even if OSU loses.

How can people hate OSU more than MSU?  Because they win?  MSU is a bunch of egotistical POSs that don’t give a damn about humans, that is besides MSU basketball or football players.  Fuck them. Fuck all of them!  

I hate losing to either of them and hate seeing OSU win repeatedly, but if I had to pick one or the other to win any sort of championship, without a second of hesitation I would say OSU.  Imagine a world where MSU was the best at something besides covering up crimes... what a disgrace that would be.

The great thing is that one of them will lose, and we can then schadenfraude said fanbase. 

Gun to head: I'm putting on a Sparty helmet.  Beat Ohio.  

I'd then tell all my Sparty friends, because little else mind**** them more than a scUMmer rooting for MSU.

The threat has never been MSU, and never will be. The threat is OSU.  I will root for MSU to beat those Columbus clowns.  MSU is very beatable, and not just by Michigan.  I want the East division wrapped UP by Michigan before we take the field against OSU.  Fuck OSU.

Yeah, I don't understand those that want OSU to win.  We have ONE win against them in forever.  They kicked our asses last season.  They've been to the playoff twice and won the B1G countless times recently.  They hate every atom of our existence and laugh at our BPONE.  I not only want to see OSU lose, I want to see them completely embarrassed in front of their redneck fans and a national television audience.

We all want these things but that doesn’t mean that’s what happens.  I’ll save you the heartache they are going to beat us again and probably badly at home this year.  They have a better QB and better athletes.  That’s just how it works, it’s not negative it’s fact.  It’s not 1950 anymore where everyone runs the ball and upsets tended to happen more.  Until we get the QB and athletes to play with them we will not win that game

There's a zero percent chance we have the East wrapped up by The Game.

That would mean we beat MSU and PSU, and they have 2 B1G losses each going into the last game. And it would mean OSU has 3 B1G losses going into the Game, finishing 5-4 if we beat them.

This is an impossible scenario.

Dantonio is small potatoes after the likes of Woody Hayes being asked “Why did you go for two” at the end of a blowout. And replied “Because I couldn’t go for three”. Some of you guys are too young to get how much the OSU people hate us. As small as MSU fans can be, The scarlet n grey can walk under doors without opening them.

It doesn’t matter osu is going to blow them out and I am putting money on that so I will be rooting for Ohio. Don’t care anymore Ohio state provided they stay healthy is going to whip everyone in the big tens ass.  They are on another level this year. I think they should be ranked 1 in the country or 2 flip flop them and LSU right now.  That may not be how it ends up but those are the two best teams with Georgia and Oklahoma right now I’m my opinion.

I'm still dumb enough to root for OSU to go into The Game undefeated so we can beat them but obviously that won't happen so I really don't know at this point. MSU would logically help strength of schedule but sadly it's fun to watch Justin Fields light it up.
