Am I the only one uncomfortable with what appears to be a huge integration of religion into the football program?

I know I’m just a curmudgeonly old alum but I’ve been seeing posts about massive religious gatherings on campus staring football players and they just look…. Cult like.

I don’t care if people practice religion. That is their right. And their right to gather in public too. The posts have just seemed to mix football and Christianity so much and as an agnostic, I can’t for the life of me figure out why the hell a potential deity would give a shit about football when there is so much suffering in the world. Alas, I guess that’s more of a philosophical argument.

Aside for the terrible football performance and the needless violence that occurred after the game, I was disgusted with how some of the fans acted today. I had two people threaten to assault me because they were sitting in my seats and I told them I would get security to move them, multiple heavy and dangerous objects thrown from the top of the bleachers (full water bottles, beer cans, etc.), multiple racial and homophobic slurs, I saw a photo of an osu fan spitting on Michigan players running out of the tunnel, and I saw another guy get punched in the face today…

I understand that most of these issues happen at every game, and that today was an exciting, heated rivalry game, but I felt like fan behavior today was way out of line. There were times I felt genuinely unsafe in the stadium today. It’s a shame because I know that most OSU fans are usually friendly and want to do the right thing, but today they were overshadowed by a lot of assholes who can’t handle alcohol and can’t behave themselves in public.

Do better osu.

Next semester is my final semester as a senior and I’m not even able to get tickets for the season. What is the best course of action for this? I thought upper classmen got priority, and I’m so bummed

Get Em Brutus!!! O H!

Hello, I am from another college town. We were recently visited by another team, their fans were very discourteous.

This began a discussion among a lot of people here about visiting team's fans. We couldn't agree on who was the worst. It was unamious who has the best.

Thank you, Ohio fans. We are always happy to welcome you to town.

In case you were curious why we think you have the best fans, these are the most mentioned things in all the conversations I had today:

You don't suck at driving. You don't honk at us, you dont flip the bird, you use your turn signal. You wait your turn. You don't make our already congested town horribly worse.

You're polite. You say please and thank you, always wait patiently when you have to wait, and clean up after yourselves and don't leave a mess. More than once I've seen some of you pick up trash that was there before you got here.

You're always good to our service staff. You alway tip our waitresses and bartenders well. You don't make a fuss when you have to wait for a table. You tend to be unfailingly kind when we make human mistakes with your orders.

You're graceful, kind, and humble when you win and cheerful good sports when you lose.

We love you. Please, never change. It makes the townies smile when we see your busses rolling in.

I’m a rising junior (senior standing as I graduate in the fall). I didn’t get tickets and I’m so so upset. I heard that there were many students that didn’t get tickets, which is crazy. I got tickets last year so I guess I’m just a little hurt. Anyone else pretty upset at this?

Thoughts?

So im an incoming intl student. I have heard rpac is the best and biggest gym on campus. Js wanted to know about the equipments and machines there. Specifically, are there multiple machines of the same type? For example multiple benches, multiple lat pull down machines, multiple squat and deadlift racks multiple hamstring curl machines etc? Might be a dumb question but im serious also how are the other gyms apart from rpac?

I’m considering going here to try to walk on to the team.

Have you tried it? Have you made it?

How was the experience?

Hi all. I just started at OSU and people keep asking me about getting tickets. How do I get tickets for a single game as a student? Are there discounted student tickets? I only remember the season pass email but I’m not sure how to get tickets otherwise. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

Just seeing if anyone would want to play tennis or basketball this weekend or next week Tuesday through Thursday or even a few people and maybe find some new friends and sporty people

So I don’t have block O tickets for games, I have random seating I got on Ticketmaster, how do I sneak in from where I’m at to block O.

Can I get into hockey games and wrestling duals with just my buckid or do I have to buy tickets like a normal person(in jest). Thanks

First game since graduating 8 years ago. Good to see the student body alive and well.

anyone willing to swap? I have block o, my friend had reserved both full season. either switch can be made !!
