[@pliccut]

If the Buckeyes win I won’t need “Joy mode!”😂

[@lacey7778]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg. This made me laugh for 10 mins!!! Ty!

[@pliccut]

@ There’s no better “elixir” for your OSU man than a victory tonight. Uhh… make that 2 “victories”. If you can pull him away from social media after the game!

[@terrythompson1980]

JBook is 100% right about the pace OSU needs to play with tonight, almost there let it all go baby!!!

[@mecahhannah]

Awesome as always thanks guys go bucks slow internet this morning so couldn't catch the LIVE SHOW! BUCKEYES AGAINST THE WORLD! 45-14 BUCKS WIN!

[@buckeye002]

Tate and Gee Scott should feast if they focus on JJ and Emeka! Go Bucks!

[@bucknado9748]

Howard needs to have another great decision game. Dline rotation. Special teams need to not make any blunders. No injuries and GO BUCKS!

[@terrythompson1980]

Good morning Bucknuts, Go Bucks!!

[@kevinb285]

I agree with Dave. Kirk has picked a fight with Ohio State fans and particularly, what he calls the fringe fans and has turned that feud public. In my opinion, since Kirk is fighting with the fringe, he is part of the fringe. Why is a major sports commentator even talking about this..

[@Dutch1982]

happy bday Suzanne!

[@terrythompson1980]

Hopefully Chip calls a really good game tonight, tired of hearing espn say nobody wants to give Texas any chance tonight!! Like Sark has something up their sleeve for OSU tonight they’re saying. You’re right Dave OSU needs to finish this game the right way. Go Bucks

[@michaeltepe3573]

Ya I hate how Texas is really using the narrative. Its overkill

[@JimGrahamsr]

Dave, this 2021 class finally comes home to roost

[@dbcollings5739]

Herbstreit deserves to be IGNORED! He has earned for BUCKEYE NATION to IGNORE him!

[@pkk8526]

Way to go Lil Bro State! Took that ass whuppin’ by Big Bro and didnt let that go to waste. I’m proud of you - let’s go and finish this thing up! Go Bucks (and Go Blue)!

[@ChristoFreeze]

RIP to my old friend and spring break partner D. Stanley #3. Miss seeing your smile at 5am in the gym asking me why I missed leg day. I have cancer and made it here, what’s your excuse maaaan.

[@mattrannells8458]

Ohio St.42- Texas 21😊

#GoBucks

[@sarahmccoy1941]

Ohio State should be heavily favored. The Buckeyes are on a roll. They have been since Michigan embarrassed them on Nov. 30. The Texas Longhorns, on the other hand, have not played well in their last two games. They have been inconsistent on offense, due in part to injured personnel on the offensive line.

[@justinsword4522]

Herbie made his bed for years. One game of championing the buckeyes is comical. We good herbie

[@golfcoursemanager33]

they'll smack Notre Dame. Just need to get by the big boys.

[@kentacohut3011]

100% didn’t believe Kirk was being authentic with that rant against Desmond

[@ChaseCastle19]

Dave, you are 1000% right about herbstreet! He is a total sellout to esecpn and deserves all the blowback hes getting. It amazes me that any real buckeye fan would defend him.

[@marycooley4943]

42 to 17 Buckeyes. We play pur game

[@gtb5216]

This game will be closer! Bucks 31 Tejas 21

[@nomadicones3832]

Not too hard on Herbie imo.

[@alphapapa5383]

I honestly think the "Nobody's giving us a chance" card can be dangerous for Texas. If the Buckeyes give them the Oregon treatment, and they have that "People doubting us" thought in their head still, theyll start to believe it and get shell-shocked.

[@roris5882]

Herbstreet doesn't think OSU deserves to be a contender for the Natty because they aren't from the big bad SEC, aka the Greatest Conference in the World 🌎, according to ESPN, his employer and Desmond Howard, his work BFF.

[@dogmoon5555]

GO BUCKS! Herbstriet SUCKS! Lol

[@marycooley4943]

First TX then we can look at ND

[@KendraPitching]

He wasn’t wrong. The OSU fringe is going to cost this team dearly someday. If it hasn’t already. There are rumors day is leaving the program win or lose

[@mrbillgolf]

Go fast and stay aggressive, lose the coin toss and score first

[@shepherdbill5698]

Dodnt did like there defense it really is bad

[@roris5882]

Would you rather have Ewers, Beck, or Milroe transfer to OSU this offseason?

[@marycooley4943]

None of the above

[@gregggarver6857]

Neither wr got our QB's

[@mrbillgolf]

We got 2 qbs next year,

[@Jayyperryy]

I have Texas winning. I think it’ll be a game where Ohio State makes a few mistakes and Texas makes it a close game all game and they get a break later in the game to win

[@shepherdbill5698]

The way ohio state is playing they deserve to lose

[@mrbillgolf]

Go fast and stay aggressive, lose the coin toss and score first
