Ohio State Buckeyes-Dr. Dre

This one is pretty simple. Ohio State is the top college football program in the world right now after winning the national championship. Dr. Dre is the richest rapper ever. The combination of those two makes this a perfect fit.

Dre is the one person on this list who has not had a No. 1 album since 2000, but he does not have to. First of all, The Chronic and The Chronic 2001 are two of the greatest albums of all time, and N.W.A. has a strong case to be made as the greatest rap group of all time.

Dre’s deep roots in rap success are similar to Ohio State’s deep roots in college football success, and despite not doing an album for 15 years, if Dre dropped Detox tomorrow it would be the hottest album over the next two years.

Oh, and Dre not only brought us Eminem and Snoop, but recently he has brought us Top Dawg Entertainment, blessing us with the greatness of Schoolboy Q and Kendrick Lamar.

Speaking of which…
