You may find that work, school, or other obligations keep you from focusing on Twitter the way you should. Thankfully for you, I'm able to tune out those distractions and provide you with a weekly rundown of the best tweets from around campus.
The Buckeyes are on the road this week, taking on Rutgers in Piscataway. "Piscataway, New Jersey" is not something that screams "hostile environment," but don't tell that to Rutgers head coach Kyle Flood.
"Saturday night will be the best atmosphere in all of college football," Flood said, on the Big Ten Teleconference, Tuesday.
Honestly, I don't disagree. There is always something special about hearing "O-H-I-O" going around an opposing team's stadium. I imagine it'll sound even better at prime time. I'm sure Flood will not be disappointed.
As we eagerly await J.T. Barrett's first start of the year and "the best atmosphere in all of college football," here are this week's Tweets From Around Campus.

This seems to be a trend with this team and I must say, I approve. It actually makes no sense to go to the movies as a social event. You sit silently in a dark room and stare at a screen for upwards of an hour and a half, then you leave. There is nothing social about that.

I'm by far the slowest walker on campus. But probably one of the fastest runners
— Jerome Baker Jr. (@Lastname_Baker) October 21, 2015
Slow walkers are the worst. I know exactly how long it takes me to get from my house to my classes and getting behind a slow walker totally throws off my timing. We should all chip in and buy him one of those hoverboard things, for my sake.

Listen. I love Chipotle. But again, it's not that good. Please just try somewhere else.

I've never been a library kind of guy. I'm more into suffering through it in my own room. To each his own, I guess.

Ezekiel Elliott talks to lolo jones
Ezekiel Elliott had no luck with Taylor Swift a few weeks ago, but he got right back in the game this week. This time it was with track star Lolo Jones.
