LSU like everyone else on planet earth. I remember during the national championship a decade ago the scoreboard on ABC listed "Ohio State" and "LSU" and I found it interesting they wouldn't be consistent with both.
It is more often called LSU, sure. But it is also often called Louisiana State. Because that is what it is. Ohio State is often referred to as just OSU.
When anyone in the country outside of Oregon or Oklahoma hears OSU...what do they think of? Ohio State.

I’d say that’s conjecture at best. I was born in South Carolina, lived the south my entire life, raised by a family of Ohioans and still think Oklahoma State is OSU.
They both own the trademark jointly, so technically they both are OSU....but I don’t think many people outside Ohio think it’s really OSU.
I also just asked the Ohio State alum I work with, who told me that nobody really calls it that anymore under the age of like 40.
It seems like more of a generational thing than a regional.

Define "often." I can think of basically no other examples than the one you cited (which I am again assuming was done by a woman and/or someone new to the game), and maybe the diplomas they give away and other official academic items.
I thought OSU was only Ohio State, indeed.
THE Ohio State University is rarely referred to as "OSU".
OSU = Ohlahoma State University
Obviously around here OSU refers to Oklahoma. Didn't know it was that way elsewhere too. I assumed there was no standard "OSU." I'm going to venture to guess that folks in California and Massachusetts and Utah and Georgia don't assume OSU refers to Ohio State. So yeah, Gipper's wrong again.
But nevertheless, the larger point was no one calls LSU Louisiana State, and Gipper arguing it is just his contrarianism, and not any actual pursuit of the truth.

Google "Louisiana State." The LSU website and its Wikipedia comes up. Outside of that everything on the first page is related to the state generally, not the school.
Type in Ohio State and it gives you a snapshot of the football team's schedule and results, Ohio State football news, and EVERY LISTING on the first page is related to the university.

Here in NE Ohio, OSU is used very often both print and spoken. As far as LSU? We just call them inbred.?

After perusing the political board, I'm beginning to think inbred also refers to OSU fans.

The only inbreeding around here is amongst stool fans.

You are proving to be a DumbAssTexan. Yes, it is most often called LSU.///I most often call it that. But to essentially say that it is never referred to as "Louisiana State" is just wrong and stupid.
As for your assumption that people in other parts of the country don't think of OSU as Ohio state....you would almost certainly be wrong.....as you are relying for your position on Boo Fagley to support you.
Now...do you see how dumb that makes you look.
But....go ahead. Google just OSU and see what comes up. Here, I will help you in case you are too dumb to google:

Type in OSU...as I just have.....and EVERY listing on the first page refers to Ohio State. Then about half way through the second page there is a reference to Oregon State.
Of the first 21 listings, 20 are related to Ohio State. #11 references Oregon State....then Oklahoma State comes up at the 22 listing.

Must be an Ohio thing... google knows where you live!
Here if you google "all" most of page one is about some Australian rhythm game. Then it mentions Oregon State, then Oklahoma State....
Under "news" it's a mix of Cowboy, Buckeye and Beaver articles in that order.

I don't know.....does it make a difference where you live when you Google something?
Also....I think it may also matter if you capitalize OSU. If you don't, if you put in osu....you might get more about that game.

Haven't you ever gone in a trip, let's say to México, and suddenly got, even when you were back home, adds and pop ups in Spanish? It happens the same with Google. It tries to guess it according to your location and your search history, among other data.
This summer I went to Ukraine for 10 days and I still get adds in cyrillic sometimes.

So, what do you get there in Spain when you Google OSU. Do it both ways OSU in caps, and osu in small letters.
-
'osu/OSU' (it shows same results to me)
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu!
If I search 'OSU college' it shows me 2 first about Ohio St. U, third about Oklahoma, and fourth about Oregon, but probably it's biased as IIRC I have already searched for Ohio State University before.

It does. I am in West Virginia so it popped up almost exclusively Ohio State sites/articles.

Same here, Gipper. The news articles were all Ohio related but there was only one actual link going to an Ohio State page, while Oklahoma State and Oregon State both had one as well.
Nevertheless, you're deflecting, as you completely ignored the results about googling "Louisiana State," and that's what this discussion is primarily centered around. Thanks for playing.

You were saying that it is more often called LSU than "Louisiana State". I never disagreed with that. But you claimed that it was NEVER called Louisiana State by anyone. Obviously that was wrong. Thanks for playing and losing.

Outside of the few context I mentioned, and this likely female reporter, that is correct.
