I can't stand Ohio State. Their fans are the Bama fans of the north... Brash, cocky, and obnoxious, but with more teeth. I never have agreed with the old saying that "it ain't bragging if you can do it," as I was raised to show respect for others and exhibit good sportsmanship, but these two fan bases have never been taught anything about that. Then again, I know many UT fans that are right up there with them...
BUT I have never understood the hatred for Urban Meyer (other than jealousy), and he showed with this year's coaching job that he is right up there with lord Saban in coaching ability, but Urban has (some) more personality. He had to overcome a lot of youth, injuries, etc, but he came out on top in the end. That team is obviously very well coached.
Ohio State was hard to figure out this year, as their competition was not that tough until the end of the season, and they really answered the call. Thankfully for me, I don't work around nearly as many Ohio State fans, but they are about to draw and revive a bunch of bandwagon fans for them.
Congrats to Ohio State, but I will not put the obnoxious "THE" in front of their name.
