Very classy, OSU.

God I hate Ohio State with a passion but that was one of the classiest things I've ever seen in. Big ups to the Bucks for putting honor and country above football.

GO NAVY! (2004-2009)

As a Naval Academy grad, I have to say I was extremely impressed with the class and support shown by the Buckeyes. It definitely opened my eyes that OSU is not one of those schools that was just out to try and beat up on a "easier" team. Well done OSU and Thank YOU!

I go to USNA, and I was at that game. I was one of the few and lucky mids on the field during the handshake...and I'm not even on the football team. I'm from Ohio and have been an OSU fan all my life, and I was thrilled by the sportsmanship OSU exhibited during this game. My football classmates and the rest of the Brigade greatly appreciated their unprecedented kindness and support on this day.

This should be a college football tradition Ya know??? Both teams running out at the same time.. Very symbolic and T.V cameras could get alot of good shots like that..

I loathe Ohio State with every fiber of my being as a Hurricane fan (as I'm sure they hate me back), but that doesn't stop me from respecting them with this gesture. Class act indeed. Any school out there needs to recognize and respect military schools when they play. I've got nothing for someone who, regardless of whether or not what we're doing is right..doesn't support out military.

The best part it was all thought up by the players and Tressel...OSU fan here and retired Navy. Go Bucks and Navy...

Class act Buckeyes. Much respect for this.
I was at the game Saturday marching in the Alumni Band. It was really neat to see the sportsmanship. After halftime I sat w/a friend in the regular stands (alumni band sits at the north end zone). Right next to me was a couple whose son was on Navy's team (can't remember the name now). We chatted a few minutes as she complimented the alumni band. I asked how she liked visiting Ohio Stadium. She answered it was the best experience she's ever had in any stadium.

Thats good to hear. I think OSU often gets a bad wrap for being poor sports so it was nice to see something like this. The whole day was awsome.
