I guess I dont understand why all the hate for the "Suckeyes" or "OSUcks" on here. I grew up a Buckeye fan, as I'm sure most of you grew up some major football program fan, whether it be OSU, Michigan, Texas, etc., unless you had strong family ties to the University or something. But now I go to the University of Akron and am proud to say I do. Like it or not, there is only room for one Ohio State in Ohio. No other in state university will probably be able to match what they do academically or athletically overall. How I root for them against each other head to head is by expectations. I will not root for Akron to ruin OSU's national championship hopes in football week 1 of the 2011 season. Just like I rooted for #1 Akron to beat OSU in soccer this past season. Hypothetically, if Akron played OSU in basketball later this season and it was potentially for OSU to earn the #1 overall seed and for Akron just to make the tournament, I'd root for Akron, because it would be a good experience for UA and OSU would still be in the tourney. I dont know whether or not that makes me a bandwagon fan or something..but I grew up and always will be an OSU fan, but does that not mean I can't root for the University I attend and love as well? It also doesn't bother me that people wear OSU stuff around campus (i do sometimes myself), but it does bother me when someone where's an OSU hoody to a football game or something. It REALLY bothers me when students are wearing other MAC apparel around campus because those teams are our rivals. I don't know..maybe I am off base..but I just don't see the need to bash OSU so much..especially since we really aren't on the same level as them overall like it or not.

I dont know anything about students being kicked out of the game. However, it is hard for people to come support a team that gets blown out week in and week out.

I agree to an extent. The difference, of course, is Carter had proved to be able to play DB in college, where Hall hadn't done anything in college and, PROBABLY, played on O and D in high school. We see this with a guy like Randy Greenwood as well=I think he has been moved once or twice already! Hall was a running back in high school as well as playing on defense

I wasnt at this game last saturday, but i did notice against syracuse our starting RB was on special teams. I believe he was rushing on punt return

big country music fan here. IM just not too into the song. Here is one I like better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aDnqdN7xlA This guy is actually from my area..Buckeye Local, not Steubenville though.

personally, i think if he was truly sincere, he would have done this much earlier.

I thought i heard he canceled the bike-a-thon?
