College football fans have been no strangers to reacting to crazy college football news this season. They have had a lot of things to say about the Heisman Trophy candidates, Top 25 rankings, college football playoff rankings, and much more.
One of the craziest weeks during the college football season is rivalry week. There was no shortage of events when rivalries faced off against each other.
Ohio State Rep Josh Williams Introduced The O.H.I.O. Sportsmanship Act On Tuesday
Several fights broke out after the Michigan Wolverines and Ohio State Buckeyes game less than two weeks ago. Michigan won the game 13-10 over Ohio State. After the game, Wolverines players tried to plant a flag at the 50-yard line and it triggered a brawl after that.
On Tuesday, Ohio State Rep. Josh Williams Introduced the O.H.I.O. Sportsmanship Act which would make it a felony to plant a flag in the center of Ohio Stadium. The bill would:
“prohibit planting a flagpole and flag in the center of the Ohio Stadium football field on the day of a college football game and to name this act the O.H.I.O. Sportsmanship Act.” Notably, this bill specifically references Ohio Stadium. So, it would presumably not include flag planting incidents at other college football stadiums in the state of Ohio, like Cincinnati‘s Nippert Stadium.”
This seems very shocking that this bill would be introduced. Doesn’t the government have other things to worry about in the meantime?

If you lose at home as a 21 point favorite, the other team can do whatever they want!

Most these fields are turf. No one is actually “planting” a flag. They’ll hold it there for a second n it’s over, not that serious lmao

Ohio State saw Texas try to ban horns down and said “oh no, we’re softer than that”

It should be a felony to lose to Michigan four times in a row – especially with a $20 million roster 🤦♂️🤦♂️

It would honestly be mind-boggling if they passed this bill. This would be a non-story if the Ohio State Buckeyes beat the Michigan Wolverines in the first place.
