Bad news Buckeye fans… this is a list you don’t want to be on. Darren Rovell, formerly of ESPN and currently with The Action Network started a Twitter stream discussing the most annoying fan bases in the NFL last week. It went so well, he decided to see who his followers would say was the most annoying fan base in college football. The results were not pretty.

Rovell revealed that Ohio State had the “most votes by a mile…” almost three times more than runner up Notre Dame. It was followed by Alabama and Tennessee. This was just the vote to see who the top four were. Then the Twitter poll was posted to see who would come out on top. Still not good as Buckeye fans came out with 33% of the vote.

On the bright side, it was stated that in order to be in the conversation of most annoying fan base, your school has to be relevant. However, I’m not sure how Tennessee got in that mix. Maybe because Volunteer fans still think it’s the mid-90’s.

As a lifelong Buckeye fan, I can certainly agree that a few bad apples give the whole bunch a rotten smell. Maybe it’s the recent wave of near misses of getting into the College Football Playoff and perceived whining after losing to a bad Purdue or Iowa team. Maybe it’s how everything played out with Urban Meyer and Zach Smith. Or maybe, just maybe… it’s “Ohio Against The World” once again.
