The Ohio State Buckeyes aren’t letting the Alabama Crimson Tide forget that they defeated them in the Sugar Bowl in the 2014 College Football Playoff to earn a spot in the national championship game. A few fans decided to have a little fun with the Crimson Tide and used a Nick Saban statue in Tuscaloosa to do so.
Three Buckeye fans took a stroll around the campus Saturday afternoon, probably playing “Pokemon Go,” when they saw their opportunity to troll the defending national champions. They did the classic O-H-I-O using Saban’s statue as the I.

It is pretty tough to say that the Buckeyes aren’t looking to continue their trolling of Alabama until Nick Saban’s club knocks them down a peg.
You would think that would have happened after Ohio State missed the CFP while the Crimson Tide won its fourth title since 2009. But, you know, that’s how the Big Ten is.
