Ohio State Football: Buckeyes impact goes beyond the gridiron

Having grown up in Columbus, Ohio for most of my life and having since moved away, I often get asked the question: why do you follow the Ohio State football program so closely?

The obvious answer resides in the upbringing of every Ohio-born child, you’re christened into Buckeye fandom the day you’re born in the great state of Ohio.

Ohio State is a blue blood college football program and also now a highly respected academic institution. Buckeye Nation is one of, if not the largest fan base in the world as Ohio State is a global brand.
