I agree that it's pretentious when Buckeye fans refer to themselves as "tOSU", because of the reason they do it. We are THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY.....like they are playing a trumpet during their announcement.
Originally, I thought they called themselves tOSU because Oregon State had the same abbreviation, and they just wanted to make their moniker unique. I occasionally call Wisconsin tUW to separate us from the
University of
Washington. I get annoyed when they call themselves UW. There's only one UW, AND THAT'S WISCONSIN DERGNABIT. Our school originated earlier. We're more relevant in both major sports, and have been for a while. We finish higher in the Director's Cup on average. We're rated higher academically.
I SHALL DECREE THAT UNTIL THE HUSKIES REALIZE THEIR PLACE IN THE COLLEGE SPORTS WORLD, HENCEFORTH WE WILL BE KNOWN AS tUW.
