Why do you hate MSU more than OSU?

And they asked (with a grim, uninviting voice) all incoming Michigan student parents who went to OSU raise your hand. No one did. Someone said they went to MSU, and the presenter said "Hey, thanks for sharing". That's it in a nutshell. No one gives a shit except for taking care of business and beating them and of course schadenfreude now and then for pop corn eating entertainment.

OSU is by far the biggest enemy ever and w be forever until the day I am buried.

Any diehard Michigan fan HATES the buckeyes and will always HATE the buckeyes more than sparty.  I grew up in Ann Arbor and went to school there from K through college.  Never really hated msu.  Only twice did I even bother to come close to hating them.  First when they beat us on the no PI call on Desmond in the end zone.  And then not again until two years ago on that dreaded punt to end the game.  Mainly I've always felt like sparty was little brother.  Not that relevant.  The buckeyes have always been a hated rival and everything they do makes me want to puke.  That's also why WE MUST BEAT THEM NOW!

Sparty is just getting a lot of bad press for bad behavior.  I don't think that means people hate them more than osu.  Oh I do HATE that espn moron janelle what's her name.

GO BLUE!!

Dislike OSU more, but Sparty frustrates me more often considering many of my coworkers went there. I don't work with many OSU people, but the ones I do are pretty annoying as well.

The team--I despise MSU and strongly dislike but respect OSU.

The fans--they're both insufferable a*holes, but OSU fans are in a league of their own. 

...the trash-talking from many of Sparty's fans as if the last 7 years were somehow indicative of the last 7 decades is old, but they're not even close on my personal "hate" scale. I'd put my Hate Rank (starting at Number 1) somewhere along the lines of OSU, Notre Dame (close close close second), Alabama, OSU again (just on principle), Notre Dame again (same), huge cliff, then State (in a not even worthy of hate range). One might almost risk outting oneself as a Staee troll even suggesting a Michigan grad would hate MSU more than OSU...that's the dream Sparty dreams at night...an incoherent wistful never-gonna-happen kind of dream.

I respect Ohio. I don't respect Moo U. That is all. I still hate them both.

Mostly having to deal with their fans more. A friend of mine hates OSU more after going to Toledo. So that is my reasoning.

Because I have to live amongst the Sparties and not the Buckeyes and I hate hearing their ignorant garbage.

but they are acutally good and have been owning us for the past 15 years. Their fanbase is trash and they run an SEC style football factory in the north  - with their last 2 successful coaches being sanctimonious, hypocritical scumbags.

MSU has just been more insufferable durning the RR/Hoke years as they had their flukish run of success during our time wandering in the desert.  Their coach being a UM troll obviously made the situation more intolerable. The cliche "act like you've been there before" was impossible for them to follow - as winning was such a novelty act for them. 

Now that their unicorn years have passed, and they can go back to the hole of irrelevance in which they  belong, I will pay them no attention except for the inevitable once every 4-5 years they play us close or upset us when playing their super bowl game.

 

Senior in college here, growing up in West Michigan surrounded by Sparties during their strong football run grew a special hate in my heart for MSU.  There's no team I like seeing lose more than MSU.  I only remember 2 Michigan football victories against Ohio State,and I never really had Buckeye fans in my ear talking crap growing up, so from experience I respect OSU way more than MSU.  That's why I hate MSU more.

You need to learn the difference between hating and not respecting. 

I hate OSU more, but the difference is that I don't have to deal with OSU people in my life to the extent that I do Sparty folk. Family, longtime friends, colleagues--Sparty is everywhere, and they're annoying about it. I only have to deal with Buckeyes once a year. 

a holes

I think your assumption is incorrect, sir.

Ohio State is that chronic, intense back pain that you can't and never will rid yourself of.

Sparty is that booger that you can't get off your damn finger.

I don't.

You don't

My animosity for the Nuts is far greater than it is for Sparty. Obviously Mork was a major pain in the ass during the RR/Hoke era, but, Meyer is really the guy we want completely distraught year in and year out.

i don't. Hate OSU much more.

Always will.

MSU is the irritating and obnoxious next door neighbor who plays music too loud late at night and lets his dog shit on your lawn.

OSU is the prison-tatted guy down the block operating a meth lab in his garage who drives very slowly past your house leering at your daughter.

Now that order has been restored to the universe (cough, cough, 3-9,) I hate OSU more. In fact, 51 weeks out of the year I hate OSU more.

Nothing comes close to how much I dislike OSU.

But respect OSU...a little.

nope

The word "hate" should be reserved for Al Qaeda and ISIS.  MSU and OSU are sports rivals and don't begin to compare with Al Qaeda and ISIS.

On the other hand, if Notre Dame was playing Al Qaeda or ISIS in football, I would root for Al Qaeda or ISIS. 

I don't hate either, in fact I hope each is undefeated until they face Michigan.

For me, it's because I actually think Ohio State is good. Really good, in fact.

For whatever reason, I can't look at MSU and believe they are good at football. Ted Ginn was absolutely electrifying. Pryor at least looked really cool. Braxton, Barrett, Elliot, and crew were all great college players. I hate them for the same reason I hate LeBron: they're too good.

I hate MSU because they're little brother.

But this statement is categorically false

It's really easy to bash MSU given the events of the past year and a half. OSU hasn't given us much to bash.

I respect both OSU and MSU; Dantonio did a lot for MSU but OSU just lucks out at every turn.  My hatred for OSU far exceeds my dislike of MSU.

I have family and friends that went to MSU, spent a semester there, so it is ok.

 

OSU... they get Tressel and he delivers on his promise to bash us in.  He leaves and they get an upgrade in Meyer... wtf. Every close game in recent memory they have won and the last game takes the cake. WTF.

 

Over the long run, basically just feel sorry for MSU, though they do occasionally go through periods of extreme annoyance like the last few years.

I don't. Despite recent success, still see MSU as a cow college and as a little brother. Arrogant, yes. However, I don't give a shit.

and I just pity MSU fans. It looks like MSU has found their rightful place in the lower tier of Big Ten football. Now it's time to beat those cheatin' bastards from Columbus. Go Blue!
