Clash at the Crossroads Ohio State Buckeyes vs Indiana Hoosiers 2025 Mascot Matchup shirt
The biting November wind already felt close as I started to think about the upcoming season. Thinking ahead, I began to circle the date of Clash at the Crossroads Ohio State Buckeyes vs Indiana Hoosiers 2025 Mascot Matchup shirt, even though the details were a long way off. My little brother, Mark, a die-hard Buckeye, had already begun his campaign for tickets, plastering our kitchen calendar with scarlet and gray markers. He even sketched out little Brutus Buckeyes facing off against Hoosier’s mascot, which I thought looked more like a scarecrow than an imposing rival.



Truth be told, I hadn’t always understood the fervor. Growing up in a household divided – Dad, a Hoosier alum, Mom, Ohio born and raised – meant Saturdays were often a mix of cheers and friendly arguments. I remember one particular game back in ’07, a nail-biter that went down to the wire. My dad almost choked on his popcorn when Ohio State pulled off the last-minute victory. I, however, was thrilled, partly because I love that moment.


But now, as an adult, I appreciate the tradition, the shared connection to something bigger than ourselves. Thinking about getting tickets to the game actually brought me back to my first Ohio State game. The electric atmosphere, the smell of hotdogs, the roar of the crowd – it was all exhilarating. This game will be interesting with the new changes in the teams; hopefully, the competition is fierce. This shirt idea, however, feels slightly… contrived, doesn’t it? It felt a little too manufactured, a bit too reliant on pre-packaged team marketing. Still, I understand its appeal. It caters to the die-hards, the ones who eat, sleep, and breathe their team’s colors. And that’s okay, I guess. I am always happy for them, and good luck to everyone.

Great t shirt. Great price
I have been purchasing this Goldman t shirt for years. So soft. Fits as expected. Price is great. Washes well. Doesn’t shrink. Have purchased many different colors and have never been disappointed
