They perennially suck. They've not had the occasionally streaks of success that we've had. And they are ranked higher than us with little cause to justify it.

So where is all the media hate of this other OSU?

They certainly were better than us in the 2000s and won the Fiesta Bowl by beating the **** out of Notre Dame in 2001. I'd say overall they have been a better program since 2000 (I realize they're in the PAC12 where it's not nearly as hard to win)

They've played a tougher schedule.....

...or at least it appears that way to the objective observer. Plus, they stepped out of conference to take on Wisconsin. I applaud them for it. Eh, they're #7 and we're #11. Who cares. Look at Louisville, they're undefeated but #16 due to schedule. It evens out.
