It's been some good football. I think most here would agree - when the team you have been rooting for plays your own school, you have to wear your school colors. Ohio grads rooting for OSU should never root for OSU to beat Ohio. I root for Ohio most every game, but when the play Northwestern, I wear purple, and everyone here knows and expects that. “We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” ― Epictetus Back to Top D.A.

Don't worry, I am sure that dude from Oxford with the old school Redhawks helmet that was at the Ohio/Kant game last year rooting against the Cats will be there to embarrass Preppy Nation, taking the pressure off you to represent.

You should wear Red to this game.  Hopefully tonight's game will help you with your demons and you can eventually move to an all green wardrobe :)  I received BS and MS from BG but I am now a BOBCAT (for lots of good reasons).  I had the opportunity a few years back to go to a BG-Ohio BB game at BG.  My good friend was a neighbor of Dackich and regularly sat behind the BG bench with Dackich family, etc.   Dackich asked (He was very nice about it, believe it or not) that I not wear green in that seat.  I complied.  I happened to have an old long sleeve t-shirt that said OHIO UNIVERSITY but the shirt was orange with blue letters (I might have been drinking when I first bought that shirt).  Anyhow it came in handy for that situation.

We've got two years to finish the brainwashing. I think it's now called "indoctrination."  Or maybe "reprogramming." We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.
