Is Ohio State overrated

From a traveler’s perspective, whether Ohio State is overrated depends on what you’re looking for. Sports critics sometimes say the football team doesn’t always live up to the hype, but the campus itself is huge, full of energy, and rooted in tradition. Academically, it’s strong and respected worldwide, so it’s far from overrated in that sense.

If you’re visiting Columbus—much like exploring a city trip vibe from Pinerary’s Let’s go to Chicago—checking out Ohio State is worth it. The stadium, campus walks, and local culture make it a genuine travel experience, hype or not.
