We fly a few times a year to Louisiana to be with my wife's family and I had the displeasure of traveling there last Saturday morning. I began to notice my OSU hoodie was getting way more comments from SEC fans than I've ever experienced before. A Bama fan told me he thought we were going to win it all this year. Multiple LSU fans made little jokes about "oh you can't wear that here" and then told me how we were going to run away from Indiana that night. (Oof...) 

Anyway, people living in the South, let me know if you've noticed this too, but the way they were talking about us (even on Sunday) sounded very similar to the way we've talked about those Saban Bama teams, or UGA some years - like the inevitability of knowing who was going to lift the trophy at the end of the season. Nice that they're finally unable to avoid the beast that this program has become. 

Note: Yes, I understand it's a bad time to refer to OSU's top dog status, having just been beaten, but honestly, to me that IU game felt like an unfortunate blip more than anything else.
