I am in Columbus quite often for work and I can tell you one thing: almost all the OSU fans I run across are extremely knowledgeable and respectful of the Hawkeyes. They are obviously confident due to, oh, I don't know, years and years of being on top of the mountain, but many of them consider Iowa at the top of the rest of the Big Ten. This is quite a contrast to the venom they spew regarding Michigan! I'd much rather converse with an OSU Buckeye fan about football than a PSU fan. PSU is like France, or Janice Dickenson. Still think they are hot even though that was 20 years ago.
OSU is a class program, and their fans are, for the most part, also classy.
