If you were there, how about that atmosphere?

I was in section 39 and when the game ended a minor skirmish broke out a few rows above me. I didn't see how it started but I did see a Michigan fan throw his cup of ice all over this older buckeye fan as he (the Mich fan) was being escorted out. The Buckeye fan had blood and cuts all over his face and the medical team came with the stretcher cart to tend to him. I wish I had seen the whole thing but I was kind of ashamed as it was our fan who clearly was being classless.

If the guy who sat in front of me in section 22 who shared with me the makers mark he smuggled in is on here, thank you.

I thought it was louder at OSU 2011 but I can never tell anyways because I'm always yelling (you're welcome)

however I thought it was great. A little bit too much red (70 30 split) but still, very exciting game an dthe crowd was always in it. 

despite the ending.  thought it would be ugly and instead from the crowd, to the weather, to the fact that the offense finally showed up, it was a wonderful college football game.  proud of our team. 

would not have gone for 2, but i totally get why it was done.  go blue!

I think UTL II was louder overall better energy. I heard my first ever "down in front!" Today though in 25 years of attending. Not directed at me.

And this old lady yells at me to sit down. I told her this is the Game and i am mot sitting down all day. So sick of these people. Its football!

Weird thing is they never showed. They bought them when we were 6-0. Great for us. More room in the row

It seemed to be an odd atmosphere for an OSU game.

Section 23 stood the entire game. and the buckeye fan next to us was a very cool dude. I enjoyed watching and conversing about the game with him. Hell of an effort today by the fans, students, coaches, and players. Go Blue!

and not as red as I thought it would be. Deveon smith's mom was yelling constantly and it was great. Moron buckeye fan in row 2 was giving the double bird to our band. Yes, you read that correctly: flipped off the band at halftime. Buck fans were relieved they won and then oddly quiet.

A lot more than usual, to be sure, but it's the Game.  It was closer to a third an hour and 1/2 before kickoff.  Typically, visiotrs show up earlier.  (My daughter insists on getting there when the gates open as she likes to heckle the opposition and cheer the recruits at the tunnel---so I've seen it a few times.)

Atmosphere was awesome.  To be sure it was very quiet on the last drive.

the bit of theater that happened right in front of me.  (I was in row 71, sec 44, so was right on that high walk way).  Apparently a young couple was moving around dodging ushers until found.  Didn't think much of it when the usher told her that she was in trouble.  Eventually the story came out that both of them were in a stall in the ladies bathroom.  

I only stayed for the first half because my 4 year old can't quite make it through two halves yet, but it was a great half! Great atmosphere. Lots of red but UM fans were loud, it was awesome!

In section 26 row 30-ish. Yelled my head off for every defensive play too. Atmosphere was awesome.

returned that kick, I think a lot of people "holy crap something awesome is going on here" switch turned on.  They gave us a lot of reasons to be into that one.

and thank you for starting this thread. After the "fickle" comments I was worried.

Thanks to the faithless who sold offf their tickets for bargain basement prices. 

 

The crowd gave some effort to drown out some buckeye cheers, which was nice to see, but as far as affecting offensive communication...Not even close. It is what it is, and for better or worse what it is is over. Hope springs eternal, and thank God for that.

fun game.  Much hope for the future.  Not much red in our section so proud to sit around real fans that don't bail on their team.  Go Blue.

I was section 17 row 85 with two of my friends. Not very many Ohio fans in that section but there were two, one with a Spielman jersey that stood directly in front of me the entire game. Even with some rude request for him to sit coming from behind he never turned around or said anything except some friendly chatter to those directly adjacent.

I was there for 2011 and there were a considerably higher number of Buckeyes this year. I'd say it was 20-25% Ohio folks easily, maybe more. They were loud for three quarters, right around 10 mins left in the 4th I was mentioning to one of my friends that the Ohio fans had gone silent and Spielman turned around, probably the first time all game and said "we're scared".

Didn't seem to be as loud as UTL or Ohio 2011 but overall the atmosphere was great! I'm surprised noone has mentioned what a great show that the Ohio marching band put on. They put the MMB to shame and were eye poppingly awesome.
