In OneBuckeye's video, I like at the 0:31 mark when Brutus "dusts off his shoulder". Haha! But that is ridiculous. I'm all for team mascots having planned "confrontations" at events but this didn't seem friendly or planned (by both parties) one bit. Definitely uncalled for, and I hope the person involved is punished.

Great job, krazie. I think it's great that you did not retaliate. You represented yourself and the school well and made that Ohio U fellow look like an idiot!

You just know this idiot made some bet with his frat buddies on whether he could pull this off. This is the kind of crap you get when lesser programs are allowed into the Shoe. I can almost guarantee you the OU Athletic Dept won't do shit about it.

Ohio has banned the kid who was in the Bobcat costume from future mascot activities.

Where did krazie's original post go? Did he have to delete it due to the Big Ten's strict rules on commenting on mascot fights?

If this goes viral it could definately help OSU in the capital one mascot challenge.

Since the Ohio dude got punished i'm sure Krazie must have heard something from someone at OSU or is just covering his ass.

He didn't wrap at all and it looks like he left his feet. Poor, poor tackling.

Quote from Brutus:
I figured someone would mention this, and yes it was me that was Brutus during this. I'm only going to comment on this once so here's the story.
Basically myself and another cheerleader were running the flag like any other game leading the team out onto the field. All of a sudden I see the bobcat running at me. Obviously at first I was very confused and then realized that he was going to try and tackle me. As he went to tackle me, I lowered my shoulder and sent him to the ground and his head popped off (the pinnacle of mascot embarrassment). I then figured that was over with so I started to walk towards the endzone and was firing up the crowd. All of a sudden I feel someone jump on my back....it was the bobcat. He starts legit punching me so I jump and fall back on my back so that I land on him. He keeps punching so I throw him off of me and walk away.
It wasn't planned and he almost got thrown out of the game. A lot of people asked why I didn't wail on him and my response is not only did I not want that to be my last game (Big 10 has VERY strict rules in regards to mascot fights) but I didn't want the bobcat and OU to make headlines off of Brutus' name and fame. After the first two OSU touchdowns I decided to exact my revenge with a little more class by waving the flag directly in his face and repeatedly pointing to the scoreboard.....and that's all I have to say about that.

2 things

1) Ohio State probably has more frat bro's than OU has students

2) Your guarantee failed

It appears as if the guy in the Rufus costume was bragging on facebook (it's set to private now), but he's from Pomeroy. That's what OU gets for hiring someone from Meigs County, it's pretty much just asking for it.

Is #2 really a surprise? After "This is the kind of crap you get when lesser programs are allowed into the Shoe.", you had to know some stupid attempt at a guarantee was coming next.

From the Deadspin comments:
His sidekick Roofies Bobcat, on the other hand, tends to outwit his opponents with quiet slyness and a sinister degree of patience.
GENIUS!

I lol'd when I read that over there...and Mantooth came to mind.

There are some harsh comments over there, but funny.
