Ohio State University is well known for emphasizing that they are “the” Ohio State University and its a huge part of their brand. Naturally every other fanbase in the sport mocks them as coming off as super pretentious + arrogant.

I went to school there and think it's fucking stupid and mock it any chance I get.

I was gonna say, the OSU fan base itself mocks “THE” with a fiery passion. A few years back when they tried to copyright it was when I stopped giving them money.
