Several guys in that crowd looked older than typical college students.

And the online forums devoted to that football team are chock-full of right-wing jerks too. So I try to avoid those too now, rather than seeing posts about the pandemic being a hoax or misinformation that it has a "99.99% survival rate".

The students are probably wonderful in comparison, in general, but they're certainly not the only Buckeyes football team fans out there.

I thought they were yelling USA to honor 9/11? Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #10

Chanting "USA! USA!" is a stupid way to honor 9/11. Buckeye_Democrat Sep 2021 #11

I have spent a quite a bit of time on the OSU campus and it has a liberal, urban vibe. Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #12

Definitely the OSU students are not like the general public OSU football fan. Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #14

Yeah, and that's probably true for much of the country. Buckeye_Democrat Sep 2021 #15

Good God. Unreal video. Irish_Dem Sep 2021 #16

The Bucks did not play defense. The Ducks had a plan and they could pick up any yards Capt. America Sep 2021 #17
