Yeah OSU could beat UC nobody is denying that. But its also the best case scenario. Yeah UK would generate a lot more buzz than OSU, but UC would lose for sure. XU wouldn't be smart because you never want to lead off the season with your rival especially in a new arena. OSU gives them a headliner opponent with a geographical rivalry that hasn't been played in almost a century, and they have a realistic chance of winning. Best case scenario.

 

OSU is a great first game. Totally agree.

Not sure what the argument is here. Great move, glad they are playing each other no matter where it is on the schedule.
