"The Ohio State Buckeyes ran away with the voting for "rudest fans" in the conference."

Haha!

Funny thing

The picture the was in the graphic on si.com was Beaver Stadium.

Rivalries

What fascinates me is that 1% of respondents considered PSU their rival. Just about everyone considers OSU a rival… From our perspective, OSU is our biggest rival at 89%. OSU picked us at 1%…

of all the other teams in the conference, more Iowa fans picked us as their top rival than any other school—5%. I would love to play them every year, and maybe replace MSU as the final game of the year. They’re a team that seems to have our number, but we play close games, and I really like their fans.

will never happen

They play Minnesota every year for the last game and they chose them as their rival – Why Would they give that up?

It is a shame that we don’t have a natural rival in the Big Ten – since we haven’t belonged long enough. Maybe if/when it expands it will play out better

How could Nixon know so little about Watergate and so much about football ?

Iowa/Wisconsin/Minnesota

They all play each other, and it’s locked in the way. Can’t/Won’t happen.

This rivalry three way is the second most intense in the league, behind only PSU and MSU.

To quote the guy from The Daily Gopher:

Who hates Iowa? We. We hate Iowa.

His apathetic voice really sold it.

UNACCEPTABLE!

Plus they have a "sweet" solid bronze pig statue that they get as a trophy

We WISH we had a bronze pig trophy, they’ll never give that up. Actually, I’d settle for a pig trophy made out of balled up aluminum foil.

Our rudeness factor seemed kinda high

till i saw that almost all the votes were by Buckeye fans. So I guess we’re really polite to other fans unless they come from Pittsburgh or Columbus.

I think too many OSU fans believe

what they read about urine bombs and trash hurled at their team during their “gauntlet” entry into Beaver Stadium.

I spoke to numerous OSU fans prior to our game this year and all were having a great unprovoked time.

I still refuse to believe that claim

making a urine “bomb” would require planning (having balloons on you that you would have to fill up which would also cause a freaking mess). I call BS on that whole story, and say we got framed. After the ND game in 2007, Mike linked to a ND fan post from somewhere that had quotes from the uppity Domers saying we were classless, rude, and I seem to remember them saying we threw urine on them (honestly they probably deserved it, but I still doubt its true).

Unless someone has video, picture, or firsthand knowledge (i.e. you pissed in a balloon and tossed it at tOSU players and fans) of this happening, I will continue to think we got framed by a bunch of whiny Bucknuts who were sad they got beat in 2005.
