Buckeyes and Some Grizz - Dip Talk #3

GHey y'all. You know who is it is and you know what I'm dippin', so let's skip the introductions and let's dive into nictotine-fueled bliss. Today, our topic is my favorite college, the Ohio State University Buckeyes! Many people may ask, Indy, why do you like OSU? Let me tell y'all something that may shock many of you Hoosiers and others around the world alike, I'm actually a migrant to these here cornfields. I was born and raised a Buckeye, hailing from Darke County, Ohio. For those who aren't familiar with the Ohioian counties, that's about 45 minutes from Dayton. To be less specific, the county borders Indiana. People question my loyalty to a university that is in the center of the state. They say "Why aren't you a diehard Dayton fan, or Miami (Ohio) fan, or even a Ohio U fan?" I'm gonna let y'all in on a little secret. Where I'm from, it's almost like suburb of Columbus. It's just on the other side of the state. Everyone here is a Buckeye fan and I was raised to believe that as well. Anyhow, I've been a fan for as long as I can remember. I remember the controversial national championship in 2002. (I mean, it wasn't controversial for us, but for Miami.) Of course I remember spanking everyone in our path last season, except for Virginia Tech, I'm still pissed about that one. We still won the first college playoffs championship! Suck it, Oregon! Eddie won the heisman the year I was born and Troy won it in '06 and of course everyone knows Archie won it 2x. (I know there's more winners, I can't think of them off the top of my head right now, I mean it's 4 am, for God's sake!) We've had a lot of accomplishments in our football program. We've had success in basketball and wrestling (Logan Stieber, anyone?) and our academics are off the charts. It's just a great fandom to be apart of, man! There are Buckeyes all over the world, man!
