I was going to pick that game, but Ohio State is a 26 pt favorite according to the "experts"
I figured they were heavily favored, which is why they weren't put in this week. Sorry Gunz, no disrespect meant! I'll try to do better!

Lol I was joking, but that is my team.
Supposedly to differentiate from the other State OSU (Oklahoma and Oregon). But my thought (not as a fan, as an observation) is to show it is THE premier university.
Honestly, if you aren't a fan of the school/team I can see how it is a very arrogant thing
I thought it was to differentiate OSU from Ohio University. I didn't go to Ohio U, but a friend did.
As I former Ohioan, I was always told that they went by "The" to differentiate themselves from Ohio University and to let everyone in the state know that they were "the" premier university in Ohio. During the 90's and later there were many lawsuits between The Ohio State University and Ohio University over the use of the word Ohio and I believe one was centered around The Ohio State University trying to trademark the use of Ohio and especially the famous script Ohio. There is a lot of contention between the two schools and their supporters.
