Ohio State Buckeyes Take The Field

The 2009 Ohio State Buckeye Football Team Takes The Field During the 2009 Ohio State Vs. Illinois Game.

As They Run Out Of the Tunnel They Preform "The Hive"

Tressel brought to the Buckeye football program two pre-game traditions he developed at Youngstown State. Prior to its warmup routine before every football game, the team exits the locker room as a unit in a controlled manner, linked arm-in-arm in a group known as "The Hive". After warmups the team returns to the locker room, and when it next appears, runs onto the field and forms a circle of players around the strength coach, who exhorts the team into a frenzy in which they pummel each other with fists.

Great, intimidating entrance for the Buckeyes. Illinois had no business talkin' smack at midfield.
