One day after Ohio State filed a trademark request for the word "The", their arch-rivals, the University of Michigan and other colleges have trolled the Buckeyes over the request.

Ohio University (in Athens, Ohio) also trolled OSU, telling everybody that the Mid-American Conference school is the oldest college/university in the state of Ohio.
