  That would be absolutely horrible.
• goosebumps

  

  That is the dumbest thing Ive ever heard. Those things have no place at a sporting event. They're obnoxious...
• dat dude

  Terrible idea.
• jhay78

  

  No more annoying than a large cat growling every 5 seconds . . .

  I just hope it's not a problem for the OSU defense while the fans are blowing these things...

  Won't ever happen. So no need to even address what a dumass idea this is.

  I'm guessing the NCAA will issue a statement on the vuvezelas very soon.

• Al Bundy

  Thanks.

  Noise is not going to hurt defense.
  
  I hate the idea as they sound really dumb. but so does the bells that is played on third down at EVERY STADIUM lol. its getting ridiculous. Especially when the home team is up 42-0 and it is 3erd and 20 in the forth quarter.

  I'm all for having a loud, racious environment, but not through the use of dumbass soccer horns

  Football is a 3 hour broadcast of a 60 minute game with only 13 minutes of action. Retard

  Soccer is relevant (lol) for a couple weeks every 4 years. Ratard

  The Big Ten has specific policies that do not allow irritants or noisemakers, so vuvuzelas would not be allowed. Below is the specific language from our football game management manual.
  
  A. Nonpermissible Items - The arena management is responsible for enforcing the Big Ten policies in this regard. The following items may not be brought into the arena by patrons: Alcoholic beverages, bottles, cans, cups or containers, irritants (e.g., noisemakers) or strobe lights. In addition, the facility may have additional restrictions on items that can be brought into the arena.

  there's a reason the defense wants the crowd to be as loud as possible.
