Did someone mention "longest" game at OSU? I know it's a mistake, but it made me laugh.

As for sleeper, how long does it take you guys to figure it out. There are obnoxious fans everywhere, but he takes it over the top. He's playing the obnoxious OSU fan role so bad that OSU fans are like, "ha, ok dude, c'mon". I enjoy reading his stuff alot, he's like WWF. He ain't real, but he's funny. Go with it. I just can't believe how many people buy it then argue! WOW!

Next Thursday I will be at the Pitt Miami game. Sorry to say it but you're pwned!
I've been to the Shoe 26 times in my life, so I would know how loud it is better than you. And I have traveled all over the universe to different places and OSU is the loudest by far.

Isn't the internet fun?

Actually, I always tell Michigan fans that OSU's biggest rival now is PSU, because they actually can compete with the Bucks (I do it in retaliation of when Michigan fans used to say MSU was their biggest rival in the 90's when they owned us).

Been to 25+ games in the shoe, 18+ in death valley, 3 in the big house, 2 at FSU, going to Auburn next week, 2 SEC champs in GA Dome, and South Carolina 2 times. Those are the ones over 80K, and when they are loud, they are all really f-ing loud. Except Michigan, lol.

Those damn cowbells at Miss St need to be outlawed, they were loud as hell on tv ! MissStU will get fined at the end of the year is bullshit, they need to throw 15 yard flags and enforce the new rules at least. No other schools are allowed noisemakers.

Does anyone actually watch Miss St?

Serious question.

for a few minutes, I was interested because MSU head coach(Mullen) used to Auburn QB's (Cam Newton) position coach when they were both at Florida a few years ago.

and you can take that to the bank !

If OSU wants to prove this guys wrong they should provide everyone with a vuvuzela when they enter the stadium Saturday and instruct fans to blow them non-stop whenever the Canes are on offense, but to be silent when OSU has the ball. Now that would certainly create a home field advantage.

The commentators said that this is the first time that the cowbells are actually allowed. The new SEC rule stipulates that they have to stop during the huddle and when the players line up. The way they explained it would make it almost impossible to enforce.

mucalum49, thats what I meant, they should get 15 yd flags instead of a fine at the end of the season. They always had them, now its legal. BS. At UF they will throw you out for blowing up a beach ball and serving it up in the student section if you get caught.

There were 3 "U" fans sitting directly in front of me on Sat. They were really trashin' it up when we sat down. I tapped them on the shoulder and said..."you guys know how whenever you travel to an Away game and there is one asshole in the crowd who will just utterly abuse you the entire game?...well I'm that asshole." And I lived up to my claim.

They left in the middle in the 3rd Qtr and our whole section started singing nah nah nah, nah nah nah Goodbye Pussies!

yea..way to be an asshole. I went with a buddy who was also a U fan. And there was a belligerent drunk idiot next to him making a scene by screaming shit the whole time. Luckily, there are some decent OSU fans that got him kicked out about 5 mins into the first quarter

I only wish I could have been closer to the big "U" section down in 6-A...I would've tried to run 'em all out by the 3rd. Cockiest fans I ever saw walking in as a visiting team to the 'Shoe...they left whimpering and beaten like the dogs they are.

I was in 4A, they were down in the 6AA.

They were all talking shit before the game and when they were up. But god did they act like douches when they were leaving the game. No OSU fan was even talking to them but yet they were still running their mouths.

No, he was posting blog updates all weekend, and as of this morning he had not written another article about whether is perception of the Shoe coming in was true or not.
