<p>Agree with skinnyfists. Not sure where this last poster came from since given his other posts there seems to be no direct understanding of BU so consider the source and that he dug up this thread from last spring so perhaps was searching under “OHIO STATE”. Perhaps a OS grad. These are two such completely different environments. Both great schools but BU is far more sophisticated, international, and with a more noteworthy faculty and student body. For a big state rah rah school OHIO is great, and they do have football so that would appeal to many students. But its not BU and naturally we all think the BU urban campus and outstanding programs beat having football. Plus theres all the other BU sports for those inclined that way.</p>
