Vern Lunquist just said this referring to the Buckeyes.  Followed it up by correcting himself and then stating "Sorry, I have OHIO on the brain"

Doubtful. I'm sure it was worth a chuckle and people moved on.

Edit:

Quick Search of message board responses from the time it was said -

           Now I know what happened to my other margarita. * - Austin Fox [23:52:59 03/22/12] (0)

Lundquist and Raferty are hilarious.......at least you have announcers who don't say a bunch of crap that ticks people off....they just say some harmless and dumb funny stuff.

Ha, that is great.  For one brief moment, the tables have turned.

I also really enjoy the fact Mojo only shows up when Ohio State is mentioned.  Are you even an Ohio fan?

I wonder if this was wishful thinking on the part of Fox News cheif Roger Ailes (Ohio grad - 1962).

Raftery and Uncle Verne did the tourney game vs. Florida in '05 too.

I'll say this: If I ever got into stand-up, I want Verne in the front row. There's nobody better at overselling a terrible joke. I love him.

In Providence he went the other way, calling us the Buckeyes.  The guy's 72, so he's allowed a fluff or two.  It's those young dodos on ESPNU who can't get our team names right, don't know that Josh Cribbs went to Kent instead BGSUcks and whose only knowledge about the school is the names of famous alums that gripes me.

Sullinger was sporting a Nike "OH-IO " shirt at halftime interview during UNC/Kansas game.  No wonder the poor media and Michigan fans are getting confused.

Does a dash get around the Ohio trademark?

We are Ohio! We are litigious!

 CBS covers many SEC games, in the South we have a little game. Every time Verne Lundquist Chortles you take a drink. It is a heck of a way to watch a SEC football game.
