Anyone else notice that in the postgame interview Beilein referred to the Buckeyes as Ohio? Not sure if this is a new development or not, but either way it was great to see. Especially after knocking them off.

Great Post
Awesome. Thanks for this. I didn't notice it when he started doing it last year - I also never noticed it when Kim Barnes Arico did it too. r when Red did it. And the golf coach, the baseball coach, the softball coach, the field hockey, rowing, janitorial staff, the staff at the Ross Executive Residence, the guys who trim lawns and shovel snow................

It's not a derogatory jab at
It's not a derogatory jab at Ohio University, it's just how you guys have referred to yourselves before. Or is the name "Ohio Stadium" and Scirpt Ohio just you guys being ironic?
February 6th, 2013 at 12:56 AM
#30
It took them 4 or 5 years after the MMB
showed them how to do it to learn to spell Ohio. Now you want them to try for Ohio State? I think that is pushing things.
February 6th, 2013 at 12:52 AM
#31
Irony?
Why do you guys call yourseslves ohio then? Ohio Stadium. O-H-I-O chant. Your band dots the i in Ohio not ohio state..... So until you guys start calling yourselves ohio state, how bout you lay off.

ohio u is bobcats
hoke explained this all last year.
the ohio in franklin county with the criminals for players and cheating coaches whose followers struggle to spell "o-h-etc" is ohio.
the ohio in appalachia is bobcats.

Well..
if you're the kind of Buckeye that doesn't use "SCum" and the like, you'll probably do at least okay around here (although you probably know that if you've read threads in the past). Welcome to the MGoBlog.

scUM
I always found scUM to be the absolute least insulting thing ever. I mean, who even says that? Has anyone seriously called someone "scum" in the last like fifty years? It just seems stupid to have that as your go-to insult in my opinion.
February 6th, 2013 at 2:03 AM

Ohio
Our saying "Ohio" is exactly the same as your saying "that school up north", which we actually don't mind in the slightest (btw it took me forever to figure out that that's what "ttun" means on OSU blogs lol). It's just a jab at a rival, and not even a big jab at that. I agree with you that neither fan base should take either one seriously. scUM on the other hand, I still think that's just dumb and it's probably the equivalent of a Michigan fan saying hairless nuts.

Meatchicken is awful too
It's seriously something I would've found hilarious in elementary school but you'll always see trolls and RCMBers dropping that like they just unleashed the worlds most devastating insult. I really dont get why they think it's so clever.

I graduated from Ohio
I graduated from Ohio University but have been a lifelong M fan. Growing up in Columbus and currently living there, I know the whole "Ohio" thing royally pisses Buckeye fans off. Personally I have no gripes with calling OSU Ohio, as long as elicits a reaction, which it does.

This isn't new, but what is
This isn't new, but what is new (atleast from what I have noticed) is the announcement system using it. The PA guy called them "Ohio" and the B1G standings display did also. It'd be neat if the whole university did it.

Confused
So Beilein calls us Ohio State when Michigan loses but calls us Ohio when Michigan wins, come on make up your mind, lol! I don't mind the entire "Ohio or OHIO" name because we do chant it and there are other selective names people use to describe Michigan that I shall not use out of respect for Michigan. However, I will say that I appreciate the bloggers on MgoBlog that uses the correct name. Kinda wish fans of both teams would just drop the clever appellations for both team and state who they are.

Sorry, but this Ohio thing is so lame, especially as there is actually an Ohio.
Great win tonight, wish Hardaway would have taken the last shit as he was on a ridiculous run. I understand why Coach B set it up for Burke, but the smart call was Hardaway.
February 6th, 2013 at 2:44 AM

I don't mind coaches saying
I don't mind coaches saying Ohio especially Hoke because it started way back when he was an assistant.
And maybe Burke took the last shit because he needed to more. Maybe Hardaway had shit already.
Lol sorry I had to do it

I was watching the game with my cousin that's a pretty level headed buckeye fan and he was extremely irritated by the Ohio reference. He also said Brady Hoke is "such an ass" towards OSU. I never knew that bothered some people so much, but it's really entertaining.
