You are forgetting the University of South Carolina's identity crisis. In the late 80s early 90s they tried to adopt "The USC" which failed since nobody outside Columbia (and few inside) saw it as "THE" USC and they went back to USC. Then a few years ago they switched the spirit mark to U of SC which failed and they quickly returned to USC on the spirit mark. Maybe next they will use "University of frick you we were founded first SC".

As sad of a “tradition” as it is, let them have it.

I’m personally a bigger fan of the tradition of them getting embarrassed by the SEC. When it comes to OSU, that is THE tradition.

Why are y'all pretending that everybody is talking about the words themselves and not the corny emphasis on THE. Everybody knows what this thread is about

You are triggered because someone is saying the whole name of their university?

Yeah, it's the name of the school, but don't you find it a little ridiculous to actually trademark "THE" just to sell this shite?

They def know. It’s in the OP clear as day.

They are intentionally shoving their head so far up their arse so as to play ignorant. “What are you talking about? It’s the name.”

And talking about fricking copyrights lol

Like I said. They are proving my point for me.

Precisely

This is some shite Texas would do if they needed to fit “the” in there, which they don’t

Salty?

We are embarrassed for you OSU fans. I don't know how to explain how cringe it is that you all feel it necessary to distinguish yourselves from other schools in Ohio.

If someone else calls you The whatever, that might be something to be proud of. Calling yourself The whatever screams that you have a complex.

Another one completely ignoring what we are all talking about lol.

WE KNOW ITS IN THE NAME

That’s not the point. But since y’all keep posting pictures of the name, why isn’t “the” in bold and I deined for emphasis? Because that’s what we are talking about here.
