Aren't they TOSU? They get so uppity about that definite article.


Yes they are.

I have a degree from 2 of the 3 OSUs. But I was in grad school taking night classes while fully employed so I have no idea of campus life.

Is Eskimo Joe's still a thing?


Is either of them from the actual OSU or just the pretenders?

I was confused why anyone cared enough about UNLV to tailgate days ahead of the game. But then if I had to go to Ok State I would have to be drunk for several days every week too.


You do realize that Oregon State was founded before Ohio State right 1868 vs 1870. So the actual one would Oregon State

If only age were the deciding factor.
I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

Vanderbilt is a SEC school.

Tents and camp chair are so amateurish. SEC fans also stake their tailgating spots on Thursday.

The question is serious - will they pitch tents for the night?

Depends on how drunk they get during the day...

I'm new to this school and football culture. (Oklahoma State - yes, I just came from Oregon State. The letters and colors matching are quite convenient).

Walking around campus this afternoon, there were people sitting in camp chairs in seemingly semirandom spots. I believe they are staking tailgating spots.

It is THURSDAY! The game is SATURDAY!

Will they pitch tents when it gets dark?

I just do not understand this culture. However, the gym will open an hour early on Saturday, and the indoor pool will be open - they aren't usually open on weekends - so I am excited about the game for its positive effects on things I care about.

Of course it would be a foreign concept coming from Beavis U ~ pretty sure they dropped football as a varsity sport back in the late '80s...

Mine usually gets pitched in the mornings, right about when the Mrs is getting out of the shower.

This. UF parking lots on campus were filled with pimped out RVs by midday Friday for home games.

In case you didn't know the official name of Ohio State is "The Ohio State University" The is part of the official name that is why it is The OSU. I won't argue if it is the actual OSU.
