It has certainly been a rough stretch for the Ohio State football program and its fanbase. It began with a brutal 13-10 loss to Michigan back on Nov. 30, the Buckeyes’ fourth consecutive loss to the Wolverines since the 2021 season. Following the game, Michigan added insult to injury by planting the Block M flag at the 50-yard line at Ohio Stadium, leading to an all-out brawl between the two programs at midfield. Roughly two weeks after that loss to Michigan, the Buckeyes were hit with another massive embarrassment that made national news.

Roughly two weeks after that loss to Michigan, the Buckeyes were hit with another massive embarrassment that made national news. Ohio state Rep. Josh Williams introduced a bill that would make it a felony to plant a flag at midfield in Ohio Stadium. The bill stated that, “No person shall plant a flagpole with a flag attached to it in the center of the football field at Ohio stadium of the Ohio State University on the day of a college football competition, whether before, during, or after the competition. Whoever violates this section is guilty of a felony of the fifth degree.”
