Did Ohio State Really Ban Dave Portnoy from Ohio Stadium?
Columbus, Ohio – Ohio State University has clarified that Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy will not be banned from Ohio Stadium during the highly anticipated No. 3 Ohio State vs. No. 1 Texas game on Saturday. Rumors circulated Monday suggesting Portnoy, who recently joined FOX’s “Big Noon Kickoff” as an analyst, would be barred from the stadium despite his role on the pregame show.
Ohio State emphasized that no one has been banned from attending the game, and all planning was coordinated with FOX regarding broadcast setups, kickoff times, and talent placement.
Portnoy, a University of Michigan alumnus and well-known Wolverines fan, has gained notoriety online for his posts that often critique or poke fun at Ohio State. In July, he announced a partnership between Barstool Sports and FOX, joining analysts including Mark Ingram II, Matt Leinart, Brady Quinn, and former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer on “Big Noon Kickoff.”
The Ohio State vs. Texas showdown is scheduled to kick off at noon on Saturday at Ohio Stadium.
