Buckeye Traditions (Merged)

[BB73]

I agree. It was possibly as tasteless as making a Heisman pose in the end zone.

And while I'm here, methinks that Willis is deserving of much credit, credit that was largely denied until recent years, but another outstanding black athlete won football's "All American" before Willis, Paul Robison (Rutgers - 1917 -18). An even older AA was conferred upon William Henry Lewis, center, Amherst 1892 - 93.

Lewis was elected into the College Football Hall of Fame yesterday. He did play 3 years at Amherst, but his All-American year was after that, in 1893 at Harvard, when he was attending law School there.

don't give a..."OK, so the band doesn't usually play that one. It's still a song to know.

I just stumble upon this thread and we actually sing it every game day on our march to Skull Session and after every concert/pep rally

A great tradition: taking over other another team's stadium. Gotta love the O-H-I-O chant making the rounds in Bloomington.

One other thing to know: In 2009, Buckeye fans added the Big House to the list of "lettered" enemy stadiums.

I just read through this whole thread and I have two more humble suggestions
1) If you went to Ohio State, you should know your record (and the scores of each game) against Michigan during your tenure
2) Know/understand what the "Holy Buckeye" play is

Lucky bastards

I was there for the Earle-Cooper transition. I should be excused for at least trying to block that out of my memory, but alas I remember it only too well.

Personally I think if you call yourself a "Buckeye" or 'fan' you should know these things already

My soon-to-be first grade son (and huge Buckeye fan) was not even an itch in my pants.
