I Traveled to the Ohio State vs Tennessee Playoff Game in Columbus

[@LannySeals]

As a buckeye fan, it's really awesome to have opposing fans come to town such as yourself and your friends!

[@dataghost9925]

So true. Grew up in Columbus ( live in Chicago now) and Buckeye fan here and loved watching this video.

[@gregmason2434]

Agreed! While we "hate" Michigan, it is a playful hate.... or at least not a true "hateful" hate lol. This comes from a die hard Ohio State fan that grew up a few miles from the Michigan border :) As many Michigan fans as Ohio State fans in and around Toledo. Curse the traitors ;) And in reality Ann Arbor is just as cool of a town (or small city, whatever...) if they would only kick the University OUT lol ;) EDIT - ALSO - I was really amazed by how many Tennessee Fans showed! The one half of the arena genuinely had a lot of orange! Not as much as the TV coverage led you to believe, but I am still impressed!

[@shannonfuxalot]

I was thinking the same thing. Good to see folks from opposing teams just take it all in and appreciate other stadiums and their traditions

[@smokeyrameriz478]

Easy to say when you're the winning team lol. Tennessee fans are toxic. Good thing they didn't win, because your thoughts would be completely different IMO

Awesome video!

[@derekpotts2549]

Thanks for posting this. I’m an OSU alum and I’m glad to hear most of your interactions were on the positive side. Typically away fans receive the same energy they put out while in Columbus. It was a great atmosphere but it was a little strange compared to a fall game day. The tail gate scene last weekend paled in comparison to the regular season. You should make the trip up for Texas vs OSU in the 2025 season opener. Im sure the parties will be fired up for that one. Respect for Vol Nation’s loyalty. Biggest visiting fan base, BY A MILE, I’ve ever seen in all my years coming to Ohio Stadium. Looking forward to your future videos.

It’s not about a party. Grow up buttercup.

[@BuckinMich63]

Glad you enjoyed your visit! We love our Buckeye football.

[@Cbus24]

As a long time Buckeye fan in CBus, that didn't feel like a "typical" game day experience. Fans stayed home until the last minute and didn't tailgate, a lot less students, and the cold makes it so much less enjoyable (less drinking). But the biggest difference was all the Vols fans. Shout out to those who made the trip to Columbus. If you were on the East or West sides of the stadium, it would have sounded totally different. The stadium had odd acoustics. Two great schools, two great fan bases... love college football. Great video to show the respect of both fan bases! Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@ifn30]

I totally agree. There was a lot of variables (deflated fans, timing, weather, 35k Vols fans, school being out, etc.) that made it not feel like a true home game for us. We can assure the atmosphere is much better than what you saw Saturday. I go to a ton of games and was unimpressed myself.

You guys definitely travel well and I respect that. I honestly wish it had been a close game, I don’t get to check my phone on the job, so when I heard it was 21-0 I was like whaaaaat? Best of luck to you in the future, you’re an awesome team and fan base.

[@Bowhunterohio]

You wanted a closer game? I kinda did but it was nice for this kind of blow out and I’m only saying that because of all the crap we was hearing about digging up our field and cutting down goalposts. No one will be able to come to Ohio State and do that. That’s just a whole different type of disrespect. This video was cool though. I like seeing other peoples reactions to our stadium.

[@willow4900]

​@@Bowhunterohiono one was gonna do that, it was just a bunch of fans online trying to troll OSU fans, it was meant to be a joke, not taken seriously. That said, I definitely hate the side of our fan base that actually means it when they smack talk. Our team is so much better after years of suck (we certainly were NOT Saturday night) but we have a long way to go before we are even close to OSU level, if we ever do. Sad 😢

[@Bowhunterohio]

@ it’s like this. Never let that get you down. Hell even with the type of program we have we have had bad games in the playoffs. All you can do is stick with the team and have their back. You made it to the playoffs which is what really matters. Tennessee deserved to be there before South Carolina, Alabama and Southern Miss. It was nice to see a fan base follow their team. Ohio State has the largest fan base in the country so it would be hard to play at the shoe especially if it’s your first trip. You guys will be back to the playoffs. Even though I would still root for the Big 10 I would still say good luck and keep your heads up. Every team has those awful fans including Ohio State.

[@halah34]

@@Bowhunterohio I really did. I’m not saying I hated this outcome, but a good, solid fight would have been cool. I also appreciate this video, it’s nice to see refreshing views of the city/stadium.

[@willow4900]

@@Bowhunterohio that is a wonderful perspective and I really appreciate you saying that. It's something I need to hear more of after that heartbreaking loss. Even some of our fellow SEC teams fans are screaming about how we "humiliated" the SEC 🙄 like we don't already feel beaten down enough as it is. But if one of their teams had played y'all instead of us, I doubt the outcome would be a lot different, y'all's team and coach had a lot on the line I know, and they played angry/hungry. But like you said those SEC fans trolling us right now are just more of the bad side of the fandom. I've also seen a lot still supporting us and telling us we'll keep getting better.

As a Buckeye fan I want to thank you for being a fair and unbiased fan. It's great to see other fans go through the experience at OSU. I think the fan decibel level was affected by the 40K Volunteer fans that showed up. That is impressive. If you want to see the most intense experience, you will need to come up for the ichigan game. It is incredible but unfortunately it can get ugly. Also, a side note I was at the 1996 Citrus Bowl when these two teams matched up featuring Peyton and Eddie George. We spent a few days at the tourist sites with the Tennessee fans and everyone was great. It was a fun time.

I laugh when I see other fans talk about how bad OSU fans are. I have been to a few away games supporting the Bucks and any fanbase who say that there fans are always respectfull and decent are just plain lying. All fan bases have those fans who are just rude assholes no matter what. There just hating lain and simple. Went to an Indiana game years back when Santonio holmes I beleive had his first start. There fans were decent for the most part but there were some that were not. On the drive in to park my wife and myself had to lock the doors and had us a bit nervous as the college kids were coming up to our car and calling us everything in the book. Some were banging on our car and I admit it was a bit scary. Parked and in the walk in more college kids were extemely rude with name calling/cursing. I get having some fun and ribbing your opponent but there is a line and several crossed it. I also have been to many home games and seen terrible Buckeye fan's most especially when we lost to Texas back in 05. Most wins I have attended I can't say I seen anything that was what we experienced in Indy and not to say it doesn't happen it surely does. Point is all teams have those fans who can't be civil and respectfull. The ones who constantly say OSU is thee worst are just haters no matter what.

Excellent video man. You summed up a lot of the experience well. and yes, during the semester and when its warmer, there's more tailgate, students, and people out. Tha

Thanks for being a good fan and truly enjoying the Ohio State Campus and environment. As an Ohio State fan I enjoyed your video getting to watch from your viewpoint.

[@BarryWorrell]

Hopefully the OSU faithful treated you well. Shows how great the Tennessee fans are. Note, I am a lifelong Buckeye fan that believes in treating the opposing fans with respect .

Buckeye fan here. Thanks for sharing this! Go Vols in 2025!

Thanks for sharing your experience at the Shoe. Coming from a huge Buckeyes fan I really enjoyed your perspective. A very good friend of mine is a huge Vols fan and it was cool to have our favorite teams play each other for only the second time in history! It was also impressive at how well your fan base traveled, gotta respect that passion for the team and college football in general!

This is such a great video! Glad you had a great experience in Columbus (game outcome not included). I gotta say I feel horrible that you didn’t get the authentic experience from campus. The students being home for Christmas is a huge part but honestly are fan base is kinda having a moment within that affected the crowd. Hopefully you can come enjoy a big 10 game when it’s WILD

When I saw the thumbnail for this, I thought, "What do you have to say about this game for 44 minutes?" I'm very impressed. I loved your take on the area and campus. As a mom of one of the "i" dotters (on the left of where you were sitting), I appreciate the respect of the fans of visiting teams. We can have great competition without the negativity. Thank you. And to answer your question about the band, they do work very hard. 6 days a week. It's "military" style in their stance and appearance. They Learn and memorize the music and where they are to be on the field at all times. If there are 3 home games in a row then they learn a new show each week. If there is an away game then they will have 2 weeks to learn a show and it's usually a harder show with more movement and more difficult music. Sorry you missed the skull session. That would have been a great experience as well. Thanks again for the "visitors view" of OSU. God bless you.

Hey man I'm a huge buckeye, I watched the game at home, and because of you I can now see this whole thing unfold from a different lense. I remember sitting at home watching this game, I asked my friends to go, they just wanted to stay local. I wanted to drive up there to the heart of it all in columbus, I would have been happy to how you around all the cool places after the game. Thanks so much for this video!! This was awesome!

I can confirm…all of those locations are rowdy when school is in session.

You bleed Tennessee Orange but Love College football Tradition :) this is what it's about.. Glad you enjoyed Columbus and the shoe to start the game.. Was so awesome that an SEC team and fans got to come see the pregame traditions like Script Ohio.. Including the SEC announcers. It's really great when you are here when the kids are outside and in party mode.. But the shoe blew up for this Playoff game and it's so different because the opposing fanbase shows up way more in a game like this.. The playoff extension was a great Idea :) never thought I'd see something like this. Love this video and the depth you add to it. People get to see why Kids chose and continue to choose this university. People talk online and really put down these Coaches and kids but.. most don't know what it's like to experience something like this and to stay Humble.. I understand being passionate but when you are a fan being more of a Hurdle than support.. that's just not it.. I love the kind of fan you are! it's what fills this stadium and all I saw were fans like you on Saturday. great fanbase in Tennessee :) Subscribed.. great content
