Google Maps troll Ohio State after embarrassing loss to Purdue

After Ohio State’s stunning 49-20 loss at Purdue last Saturday, you figured the Buckeyes wouldn’t hear the end of that one for a while.

But few expected Google Maps to join those piling it on Ohio State for its massive collapse. According to a tweet from Reddit’s official college football account, the online maps service officially changed the name of Purdue’s Ross-Ade Stadium to “Nutcracker Stadium,” a not-so-subtle reference at the Boilermakers’ huge upset.

The Buckeyes entered the game undefeated and ranked No. 2 before inexplicably getting gashed by the unranked Boilermakers.

Purdue hasn’t released anything about an official name change to its football stadium, but you can bet the Boilermakers are basking in all the praise heaped on them and the shade being thrown Ohio State’s way.
