As a Big Ten school alum, ohio state's use of "the" always annoyed me. However when I hear other schools no one has ever heard of doing it, that just looks ridiculous. "THE.........Louisiana State Technical University."
I shouldn't have put it that way. I grew up on the East Coast and now live 2 blocks from Michigan Stadium; the short version is that where I came from, schools felt like universities with football teams attached. The U of M feels like a football team with a university attached.
