Look, over the past two and a half weeks, we here at Land-Grant Holy Land have been giving you a ton of content to get you ready for the 2019 Ohio State Buckeyes college football season. So today, I feel like we have earned the right to go off on something completely idiotic, and so I shall.
Last week, someone named Torrey Hart compiled a list of “The Greatest Mascots in College Football History” for Sports Illustrated. Now — putting aside the fact that to celebrate college football’s 150th anniversary, the formerly venerated SI has become little more than a glorified Buzzfeed listicle publisher — this particular list displays the horrific depths with which some people have deluded themselves when it comes to the very serious (yet, also very silly) business of collegiate mascots.
