Another White Out

Ohio State was upset by Penn State in their last trip to Happy Valley in 2005. It is one of the few football games that I believe the home crowd truly had an affect on the outcome of the game. Below is a picture from that game. Not only did the students do a great job at coordinating a whiteout with issued shirts, but the crowd was loud and united. The university is asking students to do another white out this year, although they are running into some legal troubles. None of the issued shirts mention "white out", because NHL team, the Winnipeg Jets have a trademark on that term. However, a university press release mentioned the term "white out." There is no word regarding any legal action by Winnipeg.

CORRECTION: I don't watch the NHL, so I failed to realize the Winnipeg Jets are now the Phoenix Coyotes.
