But I do agree that the disparity in fan treatment appears to be legit; I've seen several other comments and articles backing up the point. To Buckeye nation, I hope you don't go f'king choking away this win to the likes of Purdue or Wisconsin, or some B.S. like that. Like UT last year, you OWE US a national championship. Unless there's a rematch! Hook 'em!

People were rough on them but they took it as "gameday competition". The Texas fans that were here were wishing us luck (we're Buckeye fans). I was glad to hear that the hospitality I know and love in Texas abounded. My friends kid goes to OSU and attends all of the games and he said that "it's a shame this game couldn't be on the yearly schedule". I'm bringing my new found friend (I think y'all know him as #11) Gonzalez to live there LOL I had to say that I was embarassed last year when my Texican friends came up here to Ohio for the game.

Thank you for showing me around Thursday. The Texas fans, You,all of your friends were really cool and made my night Thursday. If your ever in Washington DC give me a call. It'll be my turn to return the hospitality. Maybe I'll see at the NC Game, if we run the table. Go Bucks!! Shawn Clinger Mike,

I mingled with Buckeye fans for 3 days and I found every one of them to be total class and just great fans. Obviously there is a bad element back in C-bus that should be eliminated. It's too bad that the fans I met this weekend have to be lumped in with those thugs. I can assure you that the fans that came to Austin weren’t outclassed by anyone.
