Display good sportsmanship, respect for others and patience
The Ohio State University and the Department of Athletics are encouraging and reminding fans to “be the best fans in the land” with the team’s rivals from the north coming into Columbus and Ohio Stadium.
Good sportsmanship, respect for others, patience and acting responsibly should be the mindset for all fans all week as Ohio State supports and encourages its fans to cheer on the Buckeyes.
There will be plenty of activity in and around Ohio Stadium on Saturday. FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff will be in a location adjacent to Ohio Stadium and the RPAC, and ESPN’s College GameDay will once again be broadcasting from the south lawn area at St. John Arena.
Kickoff for the 118th meeting between Ohio State and Michigan will be at noon.
